Thanks mate, we are actually having a reasonable discussion about a subject to do with Garden Railways, which is a pleasant change. <br /> <br />I do not think it is a track problem as it doesnt happen with any of my oither locos and i have 7 of them now. I think it only happens at this spot as we have a slight down hill run and we have such a tough curve, I was wrong about 220 deg, it should be 120 deg. It is LGB track by the way in this instance. The track in this spot is virtually perfect. <br /> <br />I am convinced it is the unique combination of s small Stainz loco and a powered tender that is the problem, more importantlt the unique way this must be coupled as the tender at different times is pulled and drives. <br /> <br />After quite a bit of observation and experimentation I am pretty certain that the coupling is the problem! When all else fails use WD 40 which will fix the common cold. it has been freed right up and it seems to be going ok now. <br /> <br />I would like to know if anyone else has one of these combinations and if they have had trouble with it. <br /> <br /> <br />Rgds Ian <br /> <br />
