Runaway Train

Hello All;

I am hoping someone can help me with some issues I am having with my MTH DCS system. I am running a Z-4000 transformer going through a TIU and WIU and controlled with an apple mini pad.

The issues I am having:

  1. This has happened about 15 times. When running an engine (sometimes in lash up) I will increase the speed and all of a sudden the train will take off in full speed and the only way to stop it is to shut off the transformer. This also happens when blowing the horn. Note in a lash up only one engine will take off leaving a big derailment.
  2. This has happened about four times. I will be running the trains for about 3 or 4 minutes and all of a sudden I hear some cab chatter from an engine not activated sitting on a spur and the it will take off at full speed plowing into whatever train is in its path.

Anyone else had an issue like these? Thanks Arnold
