  Ross D. asked:

  I have an old Lionel 2055 post war train set that has mysteriously stopped working a few days ago. It was running fine now just makes a little growling noise. Not sure if something has finally burned out in the motor or original transformer. Does anyone know of a reasonable place to have this looked at for repair? It was my fathers and I want to keep it going to pass go mg kids some day. Thanks.

  Beautiful engine! I have a similar O gauge set that was my dad's. I have not had to do any repairs yet (knock on wood) but I get all of my supplies at Trains on Tracks on 101A in Amherst NH. www.trainsontracks.com. I don't know if they do repairs or not but they are extremely knowledgeable and may be able to point you in the right direction. I have also heard of Dr Tinker in Lexington MA for parts and repair (www.drtinkertrains.com). Haven't used them but heard good things. I have been working on a set here with my kids and have a newer transformer. Let me know if you want to connect up and try your engine on the track to see what may be happening.
