Reply to "“Jack of All Trades” Lionel GP9 product review in OGR Run 306"

As to running problem in Conventional, I tried switching the Run/program switch in various ways to see if I could get a reset but nothing I did would allow the unit to run in other than just the one direction.

My thinking is that I only run it in one direction anyway, so what the heck. Plus, it probably runs fine in the various other remote control modes, so if I ever go to sell it, it is doubtful that the buyer would care about Conventional running anyway. After all, who in their right mind would pay the price for features they will not use; most folks are not a dumb as yours truly...

And then this direction snafu. I wonder if Lionel sort of attaches less importance to conventional operation than the other modes? I dunno.

Again, thank you for your advice!

 

 

 

Check and see if the run/prog is in the RUN position. Historically, the run/prog switch is a directional lockout switch in conventional which would act as you have described.
