    Atlas Silver series dash 8-cw cutting out on turnouts

    My dash 8 is cutting out on all of my turnouts for a couple of seconds, then continues. I'm using Peco code 100 track and turnouts. All of my 4 axel engines don't do this. Any suggestions on what the problem might be. Thanks for replys.:confused:
