Personally derek id be handing that back under warranty

I believe its running in DC mode and you need to install a decoder. if your controller has a dc channel it will run on that but beware that the noise is caused by the motor recieving a full track voltage whilst pwm is keeping it stationary and the motors tend to get quite hot as a byproduct of running in this state which can shorten their lives significantly. Most would not recommend it.

seems to be multiple sellers with multiples of each item in stock

Didnt we have a similar sort of discussion a couple of years ago when some chinese 201's appeared on ebay? I was new at the time

Cant we stop counting rivets and just enjoy our high end high quality toy trains? Oh no, the number doesnt match the tiny little vent that is invisible at more than 10cm away and the ladder is slightly wrong. THE ENTIRE PRODUCTION IS RUINED!!!
-
Id be lying if i said i wasnt tempted, but Ive already got more coaches coming than i can run!
-
Colour looks way better on these, I thought the pre production ones were a touch too red.

Whilst i would normally mock people who people who post this sort of statement as in denial about their hobby men child, This is good advice to take onboard. it can be very easy to do a lot of damage to these models with even a modest drop and at that point it will be a write off for most people. if your son is already into models this may be a non issue but its worth consideration. Wrong sound chip on that loco? better call wheeltappers!

Sure at that rate we all might as well buy a laisdcc for 12 euro and call it a day? Sure thats more than enough, no point in paying a rediculous 20 euros?? Some things to note: There seems to be 2 revisions of the MM121 chip as ive got what i would consider to be quite a crap one along with 2 much better ones that come with the high fi sounds that differ greatly from the first one which isnt great in my opinion The A Class EMD chip was recorded off A39r in Ireland? It also has the most advanced function sheet of any other decoder ive got? we are lucky to have a crossley chip at all and it has taken years to come up with a suitable solution that we were lucky to get at all? ALL of the above chips are set up with proper momentum and braking? things which must be manually set up on the cheaper chips which usually come blank but may contain generic values at best?
