What I’m seeing based on the hardware being used, & the forward mounted motor, this is indeed Lionel’s Legacy Mikado chassis, and not the MTH chassis,…Although the gear box issues are not nearly as bad as the Legacy K4’s woes, we have identified the Legacy Mikados as a potential trouble maker…..I have had dozens of brand new Legacy Mikes that have not even been run yet come across the bench with what we’ve identified as very excessive gear box “slop” ……..I believe I’ve chronicled at least one Legacy Mikado on the gear box fix thread……..with that said, we do not know for sure if this latest PRR Mikado has these issues or not, …..Chris’s first example could very well be a fluke problem,…..so no rush to judgement yet!…

Well, whatever the issue Pat, when I get mine I'll be sure to send it your way for further examination if you wish to have a good look?
