[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by lesterperry I purchased a C&O T1 from BL. I recieved it Dec 24,04. I ran it for about 45 minutes and the gears stripped out. I contacted them and sent it back to them around Jan 15, 05. After many calls to find out what was taking so long I finaly asked for a complaint dept. When I spoke the man in that dept. my locomotive misteriously was delivered to him that day. (surprised ) I recieved it the next day. which was about 2 weeks ago. I also questioned why Ishould have to pay any shipping. It was thier workmanship wich was the problem. I love the locomotive, it runs great very smooth. BUT the experience left a bad taste. I don't know if I will be a continued customer. [/quote] Most of the new models from BLI are made in China, compared to having their engines built in Korea only a year ago. Several of my BLI engines were made by Ajin, same as many of my Overland models. When they started using other builders, I stopped my buying until they prove to me the quality that they had a year or so ago. I have read reports that serveral of their new models are having problems, but I hope they realize that we will not continue to buy problem engines and their quality control had better show up and do their job.
