My opinion of this is, too bad. Just think of the money and time you'd save by doing it yourself. Even where I have had to do an almost complete rebuild of some locos, it took less than a week and most repairs cost a couple of bucks at the most.</p> </div> </blockquote> <div class="quote-footer"> </div> <p> </p> <p>Hold on now. I have an H10s that's an MTH horror story. I get it, things happen, but I've only been able to run it like 5 times since I bought it 10.5 months ago. So when the remote coupler broke, I took it to my hobby store. It's under warranty, and I figured that they would have an easier time fixing it than I would.</p> <p>They broke the whistle off, couldn't get the tender to couple to the drawbar without extrenuous force, and on top of all that, they couldn't fix the coupler. And these are people who are more quilified than I am, and who fix these things on a daily basis.</p> <p>So, I take issue with your assertion. There are some locos that just shouldn't be looked at the wrong way by anyone aside from the manufacturer.</p> <div style="clear:both;"> </div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>Is your hobby store an "authorized MTH repair center"?  MTH has a repair center search function.  Try that on for size and see if you get a better result.</p>
