If you ever fall over in public, pick yourself up and say “sorry it’s been a while since I inhabited a body.” And just walk away.
More info.

RR_Mel I did a pre order when they were first released, it took 2½ years to arrive. It came DCC ready and ran OK with a Digitrax DH123P. It is the noisiest locomotive I’ve ever owned, nothing worked to get rid of all the mechanism noise. It spends most of it’s time parked in or next to the roundhouse. Mel
Sad to hear Mel
Hoping the later model runs better
but from one of the links Rich posted it looks like this loco also has shorting problems
but it appears they can be fixed

Hope i can fix the shorting problems that the poster talks about
Looks like there's enough room for a Keep alive above the motor

I did Google the Loco and did see a reference to shorting but not sure I can find it right now.
