Title: Maine central 4-4-0 no. 84 DCC / no sound - big problem
Post by: Trainman203 on February 23, 2015, 07:39:28 PM
I bought one of these discontinued Richmond engines from a discount house 5 weeks ago.  One cross head guide just broke, rendering the engine inoperable.

CONUNDRUM:

It's past the 10 day return time frame at the discount house but they have more of this discontinued engine in stock.  Bachmann  would replace but certainly has no more in stock. 

Any suggestions or comments?  Particularly from the Bach Man. I would go for replacement with a modern Baldwin 4-4-0, but would much prefer another no. 84.
