I have had a BLI cab forward for about three months now. It has about 10 hours of running time on it. Until yesterday, it ran perfectly. Yesterday, I hooked it up to a tain consisting of 19 40 ft. box cars, two forty foot flatcars and a caboose. All cars are weighted to NMRA standards, have metal wheelsets and Kadee couplers. When the cab forward started pulling this train it ran nicely, but the second set of driver wheels derails over EVERY turnout. When I run the locomotive by itself, it derails about 10 percent of time when going over a turnout. I use Peco code 100 medium and large turnouts. Has anyone experienced a similar problem? I have never had a similar problem with my Trix Big Boy even whe it pulls the identical train.
