Good afternoon. First, I apologize if I posted in the wrong forum. Recently I purchased a used MTH RailKing "Christmas 4-6-0 Steam Freight Set". I wanted an inexpensive train to run around the Christmas tree. It is a beautiful set. However, when hooked up, it goes and goes, it appears at full speed. The remote does nothing, no change in speed, no emergency stop, no bells, etc. Batteries were changed to brand new, no change. I can decrease the throttle until the light is off on the remote lock-on, but again no change. The light on the lock-on does blink when buttons are pushed on the remote. The train has been running in the little circle for about half an hour. The only way to stop, is to unplug. No matter how long I wait, when I plug it back in, it takes off at full speed again. I really like the looks of this little train and dont want to have to return it. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks, Don.
