There are a number of things that this warranty cannot cover. We’ve already gone over the bit
about reattaching loose parts yourself – don’t be afraid! The worst thing that can happen is that
you ruin a gorgeous $325 locomotive and have to give it to the neighbour’s dog as a new chew
toy. If parts are missing, please call us or send us an email and we’ll send you some replacements
provided that we have them. As mentioned above, this warranty does NOT cover grilles that pop
out over time or damage caused by voltage spikes on MRC 1300 or “train set” power packs. If
you fry up your DCC settings and can’t fix it, we will be pleased help you. But depending on the
nature of the problem we may have to charge for the repair.
Of course, damage caused by throwing your FA-2 or FPA-2 out of a moving transit vehicle,
generously allowing your niece to use your FA-2 or FPA-2 locomotives as hair curlers, changing
the locomotive numbers with a 1” wide brush and house paint, adding realistic weathering by
leaving your FA-2 or FPA-2 on a windswept shore for seven years, or any other damage caused
by Acts of You that we haven’t mentioned here is not covered by the warranty. However, if
catastrophe does strike and your locomotive gets damaged, please give us a shout and we’ll do
our best to help you out. Yes, even if it was your fault we will try our best to fix your locomotive
for you. If there is an extra charge it will be reasonable.
We want you to be happy.
Don’t be shy!

Thanks to Richard Longpre for the excellent Canadian French translation. All you FA-2 customers
in Louisiana no doubt appreciate it. Don’t speak French? You can use this manual to teach
yourself conversational French, provided you only ever converse with other model railroaders.
