I bought one of these off ebay in essentiually unused condition, no evidence of wear on the skates… .
. When it runs “Backwards” with the pantograph trailing behind, the cab lights up along with the three rear “headlights”. Only one of the “front” headlights lights up…This is just as any LGB rhb loco operates. When I put it in the “forward direction” one of the front lower headlights along with one of the rears lights very dimmly, barely a glow. I know it’s a long shot…Any one have any ideas? I will return it if I need to but I’d preffer to save both the seller and myself a lot of trouble. Thanks! In other words, when it runs in the reverse direction everything works as it should…When it runs forward the lights do not function properly.
