Servicing

Post by Dreamcometrue »

I need to have my Roundhouse loco serviced. Does anyone have any recommendations? I live near Norwich.

Many thanks in advance

Hi Andy,

Doesn't look like RH know of anyone local to you (https://www.roundhouse-eng.com/repairs.htm), but local 16mm Association members might?

If you're prepared to post it, then I've had good work done by both Tony Wilmore and Dave Mees, and my limited dealings with Simon Whenmouth have left me impressed with his straightforward and honest approach - I'm sure the others on the list are great too!

Good luck with it,

Andrew.

Thanks Andrew,

I was hoping that someone would be within reasonable driving distance, I don't really want to post it.

Cheers

Andy

Why not go to Eaton Park, Norwich and talk to the Model engineers there?

Personally I wouldn't go to Tony as I have had some unpleasent and very offensive dealings with him. Just my personal experience, but loads of other really helpful friendly people out there.
