Lately when I run my Athearn GP50, it dies and I have to push it to get it to go ON FULL SPEED. It's like the track is bad. I have cleaned the track in those areas and it still does this. The locomotive runs very fast on the track sections it doesn't die on. I have 2 just-about-worthless AHM locomotives, SD40s, and they run like Katos compared to my Athearn. The problem is I have no idea what to do. Anything would be helpful. Thanks [8][:(][%-)][sigh]
