Just as the title says. I got my y6b last night and was really upset.
1) Nice packaging- packaged the same as MTH does there premier locos
2) Their was what I thought at the time (read on) oil all over the loco inside the wrapping.
3) Instruction manual was neatly done but has zero trouble shooting.
4) The loco looks great.

Ok so I set it on the program track yada-yada. Put it on the main and give it some throttle and... It is loud as heck and smoke (from the stack) is pouring out. It sounds terrible, crackle pop, just bad. Well I play with the cv's for the volume. Nothing helps. The oil from earlier is really smoke fluid. I THINK IT IS USED!!!!! I called the dealer and they are sending me a return slip but they have none in stock and I will have to wait for a replacement. SO anyone else have a problem like this with theirs?
