Title: Train stops and goes? Why?
Post by: mana0581 on December 08, 2009, 10:30:42 PM

I have a G scale Liberty bell big hauler
The train will go around 2-3 times and then stops. Kinda like it is charging up and then 20-60 seconds later it starts moving again.

Any suggestions I am new to hobby

It sounds like there is an issue with your power supply. It may be overheating or just going bad >:( .

Be sure all connections between the power pack and the track , and any other connections to the power pack are firmly connected. A loose connection may cause an overload which trips the internal circuit breaker.

I f all else fails call Bachmann Service.

Good luck!
