Title: Decapod takes a fall!
Post by: santafe on April 02, 2011, 04:04:47 PM
Last year, I purchased a Spectrum 2-10-0 Decapod with DCC and sound.  This last Christmas I had it running on my Christmas layout, and one of my dogs knocked it over (luckily, it was okay).  After that, I put it on my kitchen table.  My naughty cat, John, knocked it about 3.5 feet down from the table onto the tile floor!  Some of the detail parts, such as the footboards and a couple pipes broke off.  Also, the wires connecting the loco & tender split open a little.  I tried soldering these, but when I tested it, there was still a short.  Would you be able to fix it at Bachmann?

It would cost you at least $25 plus shipping one way for it to be repaired.

Dear Santa Fe,
By all means give service a call.  Damage like this is not covered under warranty, however.
Have fun!
