Dear MR. Bachmann,
I found the problem - it's the hard wiring -
with a soft manipulation on this wire
now press this wire the truck back to the tracks.
two hours of search and five seconds  for correction
a simple problem by production.
This Loco was my first with the right lubrication out off the box-
Bachmann has learned... !!!
When cam's the next run of the old timers cars
and when the new couplers ???
