Getting a Steam Locomotive on the Track

I'm having trouble getting all the wheels of a Bachmann Steam Locomotive on the track.  I think they're on, but there's drag, and Clicking that proves to me it's not correct.  It seems they're the small wheels front, and or back.
Thoughts, help.  It's semi-frustrating.

Other manufactures offer Railer, which is not powered.

Thank You.  Will get it.

Now...The engine seems to have trouble moving past Bachmann Switches.  Gets stuck, or comes off track.  Thoughts there?

Once I get the Power Railer will that solve everything, or is there another issue?

The Power Railer will only get wheels that are in gauge correctly on track. The Railer will not solve derailing in turnout unless the cause is due to some wheels not being properly aligned on track.  It will not solve out of gauge wheels or issues with turnout rails.

Before you purchase a Railer ---- Have your local model trains shop, model railroad club or a train modeler with wheel gauge check wheel gauge for you.
