I wish to take just a moment to give a shout out to Brassuer Electric Trains, one of our forum sponsors.
I've been going thru my locomotives, some long stored away, doing maintenance.
I needed some parts for both Lionel and MTH-Railking.
Brassuer had everything I needed, and I was able to order online on their site. It was easy to navigate, and everything was spelled out as far as expectations, shipping choices and costs, and so on. I had placed my order on a Friday, and received all my items carefully packed with a hand written "thank you" the following Thursday morning. Four business days from the other side of he country from me.
I like that they do warn you that it can take a just a moment to receive replies to emails when things get hectic. However they DO REPLY!!
Further, their order system automatically emails your tracking number from whatever shipping method you chose. I knew when to expect the package.
With all the "Stuff" that can go on, I just wanted to post a nice story today in our little corner of the world.
