HO steam loco repair

[Anonymous]

George, as you know Mantua is no longer in the train business but I recall John Patton occasionally
referring to Mantua equip.
Give him a shot, nothing to lose.

Charles, thanks so much. It's a Mantua loco, but I really appreciate the information.
God bless,
George

Also, if thats a Bachmann loco, you can go to the
www.bachmann-trains.com site and "Ask the Bachmann man".
Bachmann steamers have a limited life warranty.
If less than one year old, no service charge.
Over one year $15.00 plus your shipping expenses.

I have been waiting for somebody with knowledge
on your request but no responses so try this fellow
John Patton of Meyerdale Pa
[e-mail]
He has done Rivarossi repairs for me on my 2-8-8-2.

Give him all the manufacturer details,specs so he
can make sure he has the right tire.
If he can & you want him to do it , ship down there
priority mail-delivery confirmation for $3.95

You may tel him that Chuck Walsh of Grand Rapids referred you to him. Hope this helps.

I have an HO steam 0-6-0 loco that needs service. Specifically, the rubber tire has stretched and needs replaced. I do not feel confident about doing the work. I would probably do more harm than good. Can anyone recommend a trustworthy source for this?
