Title: royal blue 4-6-0 won't run on track
Post by: Bugsy8259 on December 19, 2020, 11:05:46 AM

I'm new to these trains, I inherited a royal blue 4-6-0 train from an old friend. If I put power to the pilot trucks the wheels turn. If I put power to the rear wheels the wheels turn , but when I put it on the track nothing happens unless I lift the front or rear wheels off the track and then they turn. It looks like the pilot truck was reinforced, maybe rewired. haven't taken apart. anyone have any ideas?
