I live in Streatham and am having problems finding where I can have decoders fitted/changed in southern England.
I recently broke my wrist so cannot change/install them myself.
Am looking for somebody, preferably in or around London.
Not looking for it to be done free, will pay.
All of those I've contacted don't deal with Marklin AC.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Sean,

In recent years it's become almost impossible to find any Marklin dealer at all in UK. Gaugemasters used to be a great Marklin place, but I don't think they have any Marklin at all now. Try giving them a call, they might still do the servicing and decoder installation.

edit:

I just checked their website and they still do Marklin, though their stock is limited.

Already tried them, they said to try Model Railway Doctor whose website said yes, but email reply said no.

Sad isn't it.

I'm in Cheshire, so not very convenient for you! If you lived near here, I'd invite you round and do jobs like that for you!

If you can't find anybody, let me know and we'll see if we can sort something out.

Best of luck,

Nigel
