Hi there, can anyone answer my question as to why my Bachmann Tornado 60163 seems to not have as much power since chipping it & why it struggles to pull a six rake of coaches, also after chipping my standard five i have the same problem and when you decrease power to a halt it suddenly lurches forward then stops again, Tornado is fitted with a 21 pin 36-554 decoder & Standard five with a 36-553 8 pin harness. Thanks for reading.

Hi, im new to this forum, my name is Tony & would be interested in any tips for converting to a dcc layout, our layout is not huge, it is an 8x3 board with a six road engine shed & sidings, it has a double oval mainline, i have bought a Dynamis system but also have just bought another handset as my two boys will fight over one handset, i know i will need the Pro Box, but any tips on the conversion will be most welcomed. I am eager to switch to DCC & will do so as soon as i aquire the pro box.
Many thanks for reading this post & look forward to any feedback. Cheers, Tony.
