I want to say thank you to all you guys who offered me help with my new old stock Lionel TMCC diesel engine that was not running. I put it in the conventional mode and it would not budge. I then turned off the track power and manually pushed it forward and then backwards over the track until the wheels moved easier. I turned on the power and it started to move very slowly, so I repeated the procedure. I turned on the power again, and I had to grab the engine because it took off like a rocket. Now that it was moving, I tried to put it in the command mode and program it. When I applied the track power it took off again. Now that I have it moving, I need to be able to get it to stay put so I can program it with my remote. Why does it keep wanting to run full speed in conventional and command mode, and how do I fix this new problem?

Why did you start a new thread? It just confuses the issue!
