Is this happening with lash-ups or long heavy trains? You may be pushing the limits of the engine. Does it happen with just the engine?
Engineer-Joe and Gregg - just the locomotive. No lash-ups, no cars at all. Going anywhere from 10 smph to 60 smph. Thanks for your help.

whaaatt?
I asked if you tested the track under load, not the engine.

Yeah, well, I'm not an electrical guy, so didn't get that the first time

So, if I'm understanding you correctly, you're saying run the locomotives that give me problems (again, I run them without any cars and experience this issue) and when they are - where? in the same track blocks where they experience the issue? - use my multimeter to test the track power?
