Reply to "New Legacy E8s...anyone else notice this?"

I have the Pennsylvania E8 A-A Legacy engine and also hear the static/popping noise when the volume is at it lowest setting. I do not have the sync problem with one engine fighting the other. There speeds, either accelerating or de-accelerrating, seem to be well matched.

Something I noticed with this Legacy engine and another recently released Legacy engine is that you cannot illuminate the cab light when the engine is moving. You can turn the cab light on/off via Cab 2 when engine is stopped. The light does automatically  turn off when engine just begins to move like all my other Legacy locos. My older Legacy engines have the option of cab light on or off controlled by Cab 2 when under way.

The paint color does seem to be off and does not match my Lionel Pennsylvania passenger cars. The engine is a great puller with both units having powered trucks. I was happy to have the engine work out of the box and will not send back to Lionel.
