dscf1307.jpgdscf1306.jpgdscf1306.jpgdscf1305.jpgHear are a few photos of a clock I recently acquired, it measures 24" long by 18" wide and 18" tall on its base and with cover, three locos run back and forward on 3 separate tracks that go up and down and various angles.and about every 15 mins or so.however I think the main spring has come off its fixing point or broken as it gave a twang when winding it up , So may not be keeping this one as I had a accident on my left wrist with a electric model saw which has left me with only one hand to work with , does anyone know of a clock maker or repairer in our area [ SUTTON ON SEA] lincs east coast..dscf1302.jpg

These are details of British Horological Institute (BMI) accredited clock repairers. They may not be the cheapest but they will all do a good job.

I wonder - if the carriages go past on the quarters, could they be made to operate bells to tell the time?
