I let the magic smoke out !

[armorsmith]

I was running my K27 today, got a few laps down to prove she would stay on track with a couple of 10' curves.  Left her running while I went into the stroage room to unbox a couple of pieces of rolling stock.  Returned to the layour when another member was hollering my engine was smoking and stopped running.  Smells real bad of burnt circuit board.  The loco was not derailed that the savoirs could remember.  I know there are a couple of small boards located in the engine.  One is the flicker board for the firebox, another controls the smoke unit, and the last one is on the back side of the Pitman motor.  I also observed that after the incident, the track still had power and had not blown the fuse on the Train Engineer or the Meanwell power supply,  Any ideas which one might be the cuoprit?

With the holidays here I don't think I will be sending it home to Bachmann for repairs immediately.  Nor do I plan to get into the loco myself until after the holidays.

Thanks for any help.
