blueline SD-9
Posted by alco751 on Saturday, January 17, 2009 9:39 AM

I have a Blueline SD-9 that has given me fits ever since I bought it. It stalls out going thru switches and derails a lot. I have several other locs that run on the layout and negotiate switches and curves without a bit of trouble. I was wondering if anyone else has had problems with their Blueline locs. I have contacted BLI but have not gotten any response from them.

The SD9 is a six axle diesel.  Are the others that run fine also 6 axle or 4 axle ?  What type of track and swicthes are you using ?
