<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Casting my memory back a very loooooong time when I was a mere schoolboy I used to take my broken Triang (as it was then) locomotives to the factory, where a very nice man with a white coat (no he did not have a padded van before you say anything BRITHO !) would exchange them for brand new ones !
I wouldn't dream of it...............and how come you remember that far back?
But seriously, many years ago when I dabbled in N gauge Hornby had a repair workshop in Albert Road Ramsgate. They managed to fix my 9F while I was waiting, and gave me a box of derelict bits to play with as well.
