To Puckdropper-

Thanks much for your detaied instructions on cleaning Gordon.  Gave
them to my son and he took the shell off, and put it back on - said
he'd never get it back together.

He emailed Bachmann for a quote to do the cleaning for him.  They
replied back that if Gordon was less than a year old, they would repair
or replace at no charge.  Since I bought the engine for my grandson, I
dug around and found the receipt, my son mailed it and Gordon  to
Bachmann and about 10 days later, Gordon shoed up ready to run.

Now Gordon is pulling 2 passenger cars one one track, Percy pulling two
hoppers on another track, and a third track has James The Red Engine
pulling 2 passenger cars.  Thomas sits atop the mountain watching the
three layouts.  James was a recent acquisition from Josh (grandson) and
Pops (me) attending a train show this past wekend - yes he talked me
into buying James AND 2 passenger cars for him.

All is well in the land of Sodor.
