[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by RedGrey62</i> <br /><br />You may want to read the article in September's (?) MR on cleaning the hidden contacts inside Athearn locos, the one where the trucks meet the frame. You say they are a few years old and may be suffering from more than just dirty wheels and track. <br /> <br />RedGrey62 <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />If you read my posts you would notice that I said I had them running really well after I cleaned the wheels, but thanks for the tip anyway. Maybe I'm just going to have to move it inside I guess. The only place it can go is on the ceiling. I'm thinking maybe I'll just hang it 1 foot down. Then I'll have a 7 foot and 8 foot ceiling depending on whether the train goes over your head and I can just sit on a ladder to run it.
