[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by AggroJones</i> <br />Yeah, they would be nice if they were reliable too. Apparently, BLI steam isn't built for the long run. Major problems develope somtime between 1day to 5 months. Alot of mysterious short circuits. [sigh] <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Several Members of my round robin club have had BLI locomotives well over a year, with only one incident to report. One members Class A suddenly stopped working. Upon calling the manufacturor he was told that the motor manufacturor had made a bad lot of motors and it the warning signs did not show up until well after the locomotives had been produced and sold. After sending the Class A back to BLI, they promptly fixed it the promblem, (with a refreshingly pleasent customer service attitude as well I might add.) and the locomotive has logged several hundred scale miles ever since on this members railroad. So if your BLI unit develops a problem, call them up. I am sure they will be more than happy to help you. <br /> <br />James
