Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone on the gauge purchased the new Bachmann 4-8-2 steam engine. I recieved mine yesterday and its a very beautiful engine to say the very least. Needless to say I could'nt wait to see it run and what a disappointment.
The thing tracks like its on ice and the more I ran it the worst it got. I no train repairment but I'm thinking the traction tires are not sitting low enough to give it any traction to speak of.
I have a little grade on my layout but nothing to be concerned about as all my other steamers including my Mallets with no traction tires have no problems at all. Has anyone had the same problem and any input would be greatly apprediated.
