Is it a SPECTRUM or a PLUS?  It's not a Spectrum -- I sent it off to Bachmann this morning.

Can you describe the noise; click, clank, growl, screech....?
Loud clicks.

N / Noisy F7
April 19, 2008, 12:25:07 AM
F7 originally from set acquired last winter has become exceedingly noisy when moving forward; in reverse, it's whisper quiet, like new. I've cleaned it and can't see anything obvious in the drive mechanism that would explain the noise in one direction of travel only. Has anyone else experienced this, or have a clue as to what is occurring?   The loco still pulls very well, though it seems to take about 10% more voltage now.
