I just received an N scale 8-40bw engine from the "great swap meet "on the internet. It is supposed to be new, but when I ran the engine, it sounds very noisy, like the gears are grinding. Is this normal for new locos? Can anything be done about it? Or does it need to be fixed in some way? Thanks, Mike
