Had a Bachmann 0-6-0 switcher, ran like a dream until I fell behind in track maintenance, then it ended up getting dust into the motor. I cleaned it and cleaned it, but it was no good. She jerked and balked, and finally stalled. Now that little engine runs like a dream, as long as there is another engine pushing it. I had to remove the motor to get it run like that, though[V][:(] Fortunately it wasn't brass, like Virginian's. Real sorry about that. We all live and learn, I guess. I'm just glad I'm not at the throttle when things go wrong! At least I can escape with my life![:D]
