First Hobby in Decatur, IL

Anyone have experience with them? I’m planning to order a BLI CB&Q Mikado from them today, so I just wanted to know how reliable their service is, etc.

Since I’m on the topic of BLI Heavy 2-8-2s, isn’t BLI supposed to be receiving a new run of CB&Q models this month? Weren’t there a few “lemons” in the last run of Mikes? Does BLI pay for s&h if you do get an engine that won’t run, and have to return?

Thanks in Advance,
Christopher

I hope I have a good experience with them, I ordered a Lionel Veranda and a P2K PA/PB set, but it is still in the mail ( takes some time to europe ) pricing was GOOD!

I’ve dealt with them a lot. Sometimes their BLI prices are the lowest you’ll find. Good service too. I’d recommend them.

Never heard a negative comment.

They responed to me PDQ when I asked what their return/warranty policy is on the new Riv FEF-3.

Not bad pricing for a corn field community of 85,000

do they have a web site?

There service is very good.
I bought 7 models from them and never had any problems.

I’ve ordered from them many times and never had a problem with my order or with anything not being available if their Web site said it was available.

Been there and talked to the guys in person. Really good guys, they’ll find what you want and at a cheap price

Well I ordered that 2-8-2 Mike today, Bob (I guess he’s the owner of F.H.?) said that they should come in sometime this month from BLI…
