I am looking for a great "mechanic"

There are plenty of authorized MTH Repair folks out there. Engine House Hobbies in Gaithersburg MD (www.enginehousehobbies.net) and Catoctin Mountain Trains in Thurmont (www.cmtrains.com) are my go-to LHS and repair places. 

Marty Fitzhenry immediately comes to mind. If Marty will do your work, you will get it back running perfectly.

Another option is myself. I do MTH repairs

I am an Authorized MTH Service Center and tech.  G

I have dealt with ggg, and recommend highly

don't overlook Wayne Renga, of J&W electronics, he is good and prompt. He also sells the BCR's

I, too, am a trained MTH tech. I am affiliated with Iron Horse Hobbies in REading, PA, and Barry's Train Shop in Elizabethtown, PA. I do think that there should be someone close to you in Georgia, though, but if you have tough problems, GGG on the forum is a topnotch guy with circuit board problems. 

If he lives in Georgia he may have to contact Memory Station in Lawrenceville GA, on highway 441. I hope that I have the city correct. Not too much model train stuff in Georgia, especially O gauge. Savannah GA is mainly H.O. train shops if they have any there.

 

Another choice could be the Roundhouse South near Daytona Beach FL as he handle MTH and repairs MTH.

 

The best place for MTH repairs that I have found in south Florida is Ready To Roll in north Miami, on NW 141st St. This place even has Mike Wolfe stop by on occasion.

I didn't know GGG had circuit board problems.  Hopefully he will get better

Actually Dave, Mechanical problems that will force me off the grid for about 4 weeks.  So far the neurons are still firing:-)  Hard to do micro miniature repair with your dominate arm in a sling.  :-) G

There may be others as good as Marty Fitzhenry, however, there are none that are better!

Exactly!

 

G - Please follow doctor's orders for your recovery.  We need you!

your title made me think of another ad i recently saw...

 

 

"Se necesita un mechanico con experiencia  ... Urgente!"

 

i don't know a lot of Spanish, but this plea seems fairly easy to recognize.

cheers...gary

I want to thank all of you for your suggestions I am going to take a couple of days to think it over. Blessings Josh
