John, Sometimes you can improvise. Rivarossi used to include a nut driver with some of their locos that was nothing more than an appropriately sized allen head cap screw with a plastic handle. Frequently you can find cap screws at well stocked hardware stores or hobbyshops, in both metric and inch sizes that they don't normally carry nut drivers for. Of course, steel is preferred, but in the smaller sizes, brass is adequate (though they may wear faster - buy a couple of spares). Add a dowel with a hole drilled into it that is a tight fit, plus a dab of epoxy, and Presto!, a quick and dirty nut driver at a reasonable price.
