Reply to "Wheezing Hudson at moderate/fast speed"

The wheezing is gone, as stated above, but there is a new problem. The locomotive is inconsistent when cycling from forward, to neutral, to reverse, etc., often getting stuck in neutral. As a result, when it's stuck in neutral and I want it to go forward, I need to apply power from transformer and press the Direction button several times, maybe 10 times, to get it to go forward.

Any thoughts as to the cause of this, and how to fix it?

My guess is that the cause is the LCRU unit, and my failure to re-solder the black, white and purple wires back on correctly and/or in the correct places.

Last night, at first, I did not have this inconsistent recycling after applying the RnT and re-soldering the wires. Maybe the re-soldering connections got loose? What do you think?
