1. First, e-mail, write, call or fax an Authorized M.T.H. Service Center in your area or M.T.H. Electric Trains to

obtain Repair Authorization.  You can find the list of Authorized Service Centers on the M.T.H. website,

www.mth-railking.com.  Authorized Service Centers are required only to make warranty repairs on items sold from 

that store; all other repairs may or may not be done at the store's own discretion.  Otherwise, con tact M.T.H. (fill

properly handled upon its receipt.

2. CAUTION:  Make sure the product is packed in its original factory packaging including its foam a nd plastic

Authorized M.T.H. Service Center or M.T.H. Electric Trains within one year of the original date of purchase. This
