Athearn C44-9W Question.

I had an Athearn C44-9w RTR in the canadian national scheme WITH QUICK PLUG IN DCC decoder". I could not get the unit to operate properly, it appeared to be having grounding problems I could not resolve. I kept the shell, my son shoots at the locomotive with his pellet gun. I bought an old blue box locomotive and put the shell on it. That runs fine! The new one rtr forget it! I will not but any Athearn rtr with quick plug in decoder technology again. None of the circuit board wires were soldered, just clipped in the board with a plastic clip holding the wires in place. No thanks!
