Hi everyone,
I am reaching out to those of you who have gotten the new Lionel Acela. I recently purchased mine and started running it this week. Everything works fine except for one issue. After initially setting up the Acela on my Layout using the Legacy control system, The pantograph on the trailing engine will not move anymore. The pantograph raised up and has stayed that way. The one on the lead engine moves up and down fine responding to when I run forward or (goes up) when I reverse it it goes down. The Legacy remote also can raise and lower the pantograph on the head engine. When I try and lower the pantograph on the real engine with the Legacy remote, it makes the sound but does nothing. So my question is does anyone have any tricks or tips to get it functioning? Like I said, everything else is working fine. I have not had an engine automatic pantographs before, I don’t want to touch them without some guidance. thanks to anyone who can provide some assistance.
