What was the problem with the #18? Nothing serious I hope.

The sound cuts out, usually during the shutdown sequence. Sometimes it recovers, sometimes it doesn't. Sound seemed a tad distorted, too. Otherwise, the engine responds to all DCC commands or conventional DC.
The B-unit's sound works fine every time.
It looked like a problem with the inline plug on the speaker wires, every time I would press the connector the sound would start up again. I replaced the connector in hopes I wouldn't have to send the engine back, but the problem continued.
Probably kissed the warranty good-bye replacing the connector...
My LHS say it'll probably be back in 4-6 weeks, about the same time the 19C's supposed to show up.
In the mean time, I've boxed the powered B and assigned the unpowered B to my conventional DC F7's for the El Capitan:
