TMCC and Legacy engine operating as a TR?

I believe that Lionel made Legacy engines to run together with a TMCC engine in that the lead engine is the TMCC one with the Legacy one in behind as it recognizes that the lead engine is running at 32 speed steps.

My question is.... I have a Lionel Conrail SD-80 with odyssey which has 32 speed steps that is lashed together with a Lionel Conrail U30C with Legacy. I am using the Legacy system that is supposed to smooth out any incompatability when operating multiple engines as a train setup. What is happening is that the Legacy engine is pushing the lead unit and making it "stutter" and/or run not smoothly at all.

Anyone have any ideas what is happening here? This is not supposed to occur as Legacy engines are made to run together with odyssey engines as long as you have the Legacy one in tow.
