Hi all, So far as a DCC user, I have been very satisfied with what I have achieved, and the Class 25 is one of my favourite. They are fitted with Lenz
1024 chips and crawl silently. (Which makes me wonder about the one referred to in the "Bachmann 25 'sound effects' thread as to there being something wrong or the wrong chip installed)However, it was rather alarming on looking at the Bachmann website for something else to come across the below statement :
"Please note that the Bachmann Service Department will not repair or service any items that are fitted with a DCC decoder.
We will not be responsible for any loss or damage to any DCC items sent into us, and they are likely to be returned to the sender with no action having been taken."
Does this by any chance also cover their own factory fitted chips?
I understand why they are saying this (they will not know what the locos address is, or be able to test properly if you have an inertia\brake setting activated, or even if the DC setting is off.... I was just wondering how we go on with the factory fitted, or if they are exempt?
