Spares and repairs purchases

That reminds me of how the motors used for the last TrackMaster engines from before the redesign would expire after years of not being used (as if it were a sinister marketing trick by Mattel), unlike TOMY motors. I know this because my 2012 Thomas (turned into Ivor the Engine) expired since it sat on display and only ran a few times. My 2012 Edward most likely suffered a similar fate.
