Joe Satnik - that is the train but with a different box.  It's not my train and I really didn't want to get too deep into the repairs. My nephew got from a train store owner who just recently passed away.  My nephew not being into trains just tucked it away for years.  I asked him to let me run it and that I might purchase it from him.

The wheels will not rotate. I will pop off the shell and see what's going on underneath.  If I can't get it to move it will go back in the box and back to my nephew.

Thanks for the help!

Roger, Found a manual for a similar GG but nothing about the problem I'm having.  I'm thinking the reverse board is bad. I have never dealt with a problem like this as most all of my engines have e units.  thanks for the reply guys

Williams by Bachmann / GG 4855 Conrail Problem
May 04, 2015, 02:41:16 PM
I have what I believe is a ten year old GG 4855 Conrail with dual motor. Although it is about ten years old it is brand new in the box never seen a track until today.  I placed on Lionel O track, made sure the power was to the center rail.  turned on the power and the train lights up and the horn works but it will not move in any direction. No manual came with it - just a single sheet of paper. It says there is a reverse board which I believe takes the place of the e unit. 

I have looked everywhere to try and find out what the problem is with no luck.

Anyone out there have an idea what it may be?

Thanks you in advance.
