N / N Peter Witt Street Car acting up on Kato tracks
January 29, 2021, 08:15:58 PM
Hello all,

First time here. I recently bought a Peter Witt Street Car With Lights (DCC) in N scale. It works fine on the Bachmann basic track i own, but acts in weird ways on my main Kato tracks. The Kato track system is not DCC.

When put in 'forward,' it moves extremely slowly and hesitantly at low speed and stops at higher speeds (above 2 on the Kato control box). Sometimes the headlight turns on, then off, and the car refuses to move at all.

When put in 'reverse,' it first goes forward, then moves back in reverse after a few seconds, then stops after some hesitation.

Being new to trains, i have no idea what's going on. if someone could help, that would be awesome. Thanks!
