MTH F3 Diesel Only Moves Forward A Few Inches, Then Powers Down, Then Non-Responsive

New MTH F3 Diesel Not Operating Properly.  Initially ran briefly well, then with less than 15 minutes of operation, on the next day for running it powered up properly, capacitors charged, wait a few minutes, seems to be ok, but when trying to move forward does so briefly - an inch or so - then starts power down sequence, then non-responsive at all.  When trying to restart, non-responsive.  Then need to wait hours, appears to  reset, go  thru process again, same result with engine moving about an inch, then powering down. 

Tried cleaning track well and wheels, did not seem to work.  Ran other trains which work extremely well.  Using regular transformer, do not have MTH system as generally run in regular mode or Legacy.

Very much welcome suggestions.  Just out of warranty, of course.  Thank you.  Mike
