Jerry, it seems like you always have bad luck.  Too bad!!

I have run my UP for hours now and have not had an issue.  I am still very pleased with it.

Bill, it seems you always have good luck.  Good for you!

I have run Lionel Flyer things for minutes and always have issues.  I am sick of their junk.

If the dealer won't make good on this thing (and it shouldn't be up to the dealers to correct the defects in design/assembly) I'm sending it back anyway for spare parts.  That's all it's good for.  If any good parts can be found.  Keep the money.  Lesson learned.  I also purchased the add-on PE car.  I haven't even taken it out of the box yet.  It probably has broken wires, a cracked shell, wrong frame, broken side frames, broken coupler, or any combination of the above.  I guarantee it WILL have poorly gauged wheels.  As a consist for the UP Geep, I have a series (8) of previously issued Lionel Flyer UP freight cars.  All NIB.  EVERY ONE of them had a problem from poorly gauged wheels to side frames that crumbled upon removal from the box. 

I'll probably be moderated for this post, but I don't care any more.
