Hey guys, i got a 2-8-0 a few days ago and needless to say i was excited after all the hype about it. After putting it on the track, it didn't perform too well and made a low screeching noise so i assumed it needed breaking in. however, after a lengthy break in period of about 6 hours, performance still hasn't improved and the loco is making a regular clicking noise every revolution of the wheels. If the Bach man reads this, my question is should i seek the hobby shop for help or just contact bachmann about any suggestions or servicing the loco.
Thank You,
Eric
Dear Eric,
Try your shop first. They should be willing to test-runa new one for you. They can then return the loco.
Thanks!
the Bach-man
