the shell (?) of this loco resonates or vibrates when running. Has anyone else had this problem, and has been able to rectify it ? Thx
How old is it? I'm not aware of any recent SD40-2's from atlas.
There is however a thread that was running today regarding noisy Atlas loco's

Or maybe the Athearn SD40-2?

Take a Ride on the Reading with the: Reading Company Technical & Historical Society http://www.readingrailroad.org/
Or even BLI etc.
I suggest showing a pic. That with the road number usually tells.
my apologies, it's Kato.
bruce22 my apologies, it's Kato.
Bruce, don't know what to tell you. I have a grand total of 27 Kato SD40-2's mid production diesels and I have no problems with resonating or any other noise with them.

Time to remove the shell to see if something came loose
