I still haven't solved the problem, but I've narrowed it down a little. Last night I ran the loco with the shell off and it would run forward ok, including with the light on. But in reverse it was another story. It ran very slowly, then wouldn't stop when I turned down the throttle. Also, if I pushed the 8-pin decoder a little, it would start running normally...sort of. Soooo, it looks like I either have a defective male or female 8-pin connector. By the way, the decoder is a Digitrax 163. Has anyone had similar problems with it? Thanks much
