I remember when I first joined the forum my first thread was about why BoCo should be made. I agree 100% that if Bachmann made BoCo he would be a great seller.

Oil or some sort of lubricant?You don't need to lubricate him if he's brand new. You'll probably do more damage over lubricating him

He's a stunning model, both to look at and performance wise. But I must say this...I was running him in this morning after he arrived in the mail, and after about 15 minutes running in reverse, he started to jolt and he died out. I managed to get him to move a few inches after waiting several minutes, but he wouldn't go more than a few seconds before he died out. I took off his shell and gave him some juice. He inched forward, but I noticed that there was an orange glow coming from the motor. I used a tiny flat head screw driver to pry two little copper contacts away from the main rotating section, and voila! The glow was gone, and he started running again. My guess is that the contacts were shorting out the motor I'm hoping the problem isn't persistent in all the models out there, but if you find you have this problem with your Duck model, I hope this helps

Thank you! I will have Tidmouth sheds, but not the roundhouse. I have a Bachmann Scenecraft shed I'll be using And the second station in the photos I've uploaded is Knapford
