N / "N" USRA 4-8-2 Heavy Mountain DCC Question
May 18, 2008, 01:05:31 PM
Hi just a quick question or 2

1. Does anybody know the CV Table for the NEW Heavy Mountain?
2. Does anybody know which Decoder Brand is used in it?

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

FYI: I have a MRC Prodigy Advanced, and have discovered that this Heavy can NOT be programmed on the Main Track, it MUST be programmed on a program Track.
Has anybody else run into this issue?

Thanks for making such a GREAT Loco Bachmann !!!!!!!!!
It almost runs as nice as my 2-8-0 DCC Equipped Consolidation.

N / Bachmann Spectrum 4-8-2 Light Mountain HELP!!!
January 17, 2008, 01:10:08 PM
Hi
I have a question I just received a Bachmann Spectrum 4-8-2 Light Mountain and it looks new but when I run it  the wheels wobble and the loco shakes it also tends to stall out going over turnouts. I did not buy this new I bought it used but looking at it you could never tell.
I also have a Bachmann Spectrum 2-8-0 Consolidation and it runs flawless and the pulling power is outstanding and none of the problems mentioned above. My question is: Is there an adjustment I can do or should I send it in to Bachmann for repair or is this normal for this loco. I would prefer not to use it as a static display. I called Bachmann but it seams they are to busy to talk to me or return my phone calls.

Thank You
