BLI HO GG1 - lead trucks keep derailing, other little issues with BLI in general

<p>I have the same problem with the lead truck. Oddly the derailments only happen in one direction. I tried putting lots of lead weight onto the truck but that hasn't helped.</p><p>The tech support people at BLI have been extremely helpful, both on the phone and by email. I managed to mess up the trucks twice, once in changing the couplers (which turned out not to be necessary) and once in adding the lead weights, and replacement parts came very quickly. They haven't solved my derailment problem, but at least they answer their emails.</p><p>I now have 3 BLI engines (which are wonderful), a bunch of hopper cars (which I think are beautiful) and my wife wants me to get the stock cars with sound (!!). So I really hope the company can address these issues and remain at the top of our lists. And if somebody could come up with a solution for wandering lead trucks that would be better still.</p>
