Locomotive getting Hot.

Some do, some don't. I have a couple of Bachmann N F7s that get distinctly warm while running and slow down over the course of about an hour's continuous run. I've had them in bits a few times, there's no obvious problems and the motor spins freely, so I have no idea what's causing this. I also have a Minitrix loco that must be a good 15 years old (has "Made in Western Germany" on the box) and has probably covered a good few miles (bought it used) that runs cool however long you leave it for - guess Minitrix motors are better than Bachmann!
