Hi,
I just got a Bachman 4-8-4J from my wife as a present. It is the yellow gift box one listed as "Limited Edition". This was from dealer new stock. Upon removing it from the box, I placed it on the track and it doesn't run. I inspected it and noticed the 2 little wires on the back bogie trucks were broke. Are these the pickup wires? What is the fix for this and was it a common problem? Dealer just says tuff luck. She found it 2 months ago on ebay and return time has expired. How can I fix it and restore her joy?
Jeff
