So apparently MTH changed the Speed Control to default=OFF for some PS-2 models...and then reverted to default=ON with PS3? Interesting, in which case I agree with your characterization of this being "ridiculous." Learn something new every day!

Well I'm glad you're learning! The speed control is not engaged on my PS2 lo-V subway engines when running conventional in the fashion I've stated above. Are they broken? Did changing the settings in DCS have some effect? Who knows, but my Lo-Vs start up every time without it when running in conventional in low voltage mode, requiring me to give extra power with my z-1000 transformer when running on inclines and tight curves. When I place them on my DCS track, they start up in command control with speed control activated and far higher voltage draws. Go figure.I guess I'm also continuing to learn something regarding my trains as well. I never knew this was apparently aberrant.
