I finally got my replacement P2K 0-6-0.
It arrived Friday, and is definitely the engine that I thought I had purchased some time ago. Problem with the original was a loud grinding noise that was loudest at switching speed - not good. I was prepared to be very disappointed with the line.
However, just got the replacement from Hobbycraft Canada and it is incredibly quiet and smooth. With my MRC TechII 2400 I can make it creep - taking more than 5 seconds to move from one tie to the next. And it is dead quiet! Pulls a decent number of cars up my steep grades too.
