Lionel Limited Warranty Policy & Service
T
his Lionel product, including all mechanical and electrical components, moving parts, motors and structural components,
with the exception of LIGHT BULBS, LED’s & TRACTION TIRES are warranted to the original owner-purchaser for a period
of one year from the original date of purchase against original defects in materials or workmanship when purchased through
a Lionel Authorized Retailer*.
This warranty does NOT cover the following:
• Normal wear and tear
• Light bulbs or LED’s
• Defects appearing in the course of commercial use
• Damage resulting from abuse/misuse of the product
Transfer of this product by the original owner-purchaser to another person voids this warranty in its entirety. Modification
of this product in any way; visually mechanically or electronically, voids the warranty in its entirety.
Any warranted product which is defective in original materials or workmanship and is delivered by the original owner-
purchaser (this warranty is non-transferrable) to Lionel LLC or any Lionel Authorized Service Station MUST be accompanied
by the original receipt for purchase (or copy) from an Authorized Lionel Retailer*, will at the discretion of Lionel LLC, be
repaired or replaced, without charge for parts or labor. In the event the defective product cannot be repaired, and a suit-
able replacement is not available, Lionel will offer to replace the product with a comparable model (determined by Lionel
LLC), if available. In the event a comparable model is not available the customer will be refunded the original purchase
price (requires proof of purchase from the Authorized Lionel Retailer* it was originally purchased). Any products on which
warranty service is sought must be sent freight or postage prepaid (Lionel will refuse any package when postage is due).
Transportation and shipping charges are not covered as part of this warranty.
NOTE: Products that require service that do not have a receipt from an LIONEL AUTHORIZED RETAILER* will be required to
pay for all parts required to repair the product (labor will not incur a charge) providing the product is not older than 3 years
from date of manufacture and is within 1 year from date of purchase. A copy of the original sales receipt is required.
In no event shall Lionel LLC be held liable for incidental or consequential damages.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion
may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may have other rights which vary from state to state.
