Clean the track - mine stalled at several places, and ran fine after I used the old 'brite-boy'. This stalling happened even though my other DCC/Sound engine ran fine over the same track.
If you can set CV's, CV 8 will reset the decoder to the Bachmann defaults

"If you can set CV's, CV 8 will reset the decoder to the Bachmann defaults" I believe should read set CV8 to a value of 8.
