Services & Sales


Our company provides a series of services to our customers.
Among them:

  1. We repair all makes  and gauges of locomotive and rolling stock
  2. We supply spare parts for locomotives and rolling stock
  3. We offer free advice by telephone or email   

When a problem is encountered with a locomotive several immediate questions should be answered:

a)   Has the loco been placed wheels down on a carpet?

It is possible that a small piece of metal has been caught in the drive mechanism or is shorting out on the chassis and electrical pick-ups

b)   Has the loco been dropped?

Any shock may dislodge brushes or wiring

c)   Are the con rods running free?

The slightest bending of rods may well cause the drive to stick

d)   Is the loco lacking lubricant?

A loco that has stood for some time may well have dried out and may require lubrication

If none of these possible causes of malfunction are the problem, then you require our services!!! We are a short telephone call away, or a simple email will start the repair procedure. 

Click on the appropriate section listed above to see which method you wish to use to effect the repair of the locomotive.
