So I was going to start a new discussion here but saw this.  Was there any resolution?  I had a chance to purchase two new in the box RMT GP beeps at an auction this week for about $45 each and jumped right on it.  I have a bunch of o27 and o31 track and am planning a couple of christmas layouts for my grandkids.  Thought these would be perfect on the tight curves.  I have a small test oval set up that I was using to test so “new to me” post war lionel crossing lights etc. with a lionel 41 army switcher pulling 4 cars.  So I put one of the beeps on there, It ran at half the speed of the slow, under powered old 41.  I was shocked.  Tried forward and reverse at full throttle on a small 50 lionel transformer.  So then I took the cars off… still just as slow by itself.  I then got the other one out of the box and the same thing.  Now I need to wonder if they are junk from the factory or if there is something I can do to get them to run?  Any ideas would be GREAT.  Thanks.
