I just obtained a nice (very nice) Lionel 2340 Northern Pacific Diesel. After a little clean-up and lube - it runs like a champ - reverse and forward and the horn works fine. Condition is very good. I get a pretty loud buzzing sound. I read that this sound can come from the solenoid and to disable to e-unit and the sound goes away - which it did. Also, when the shell is off, I don't get the sound - maybe the shell echos or vibrates in some manner.
Anyway, I am just asking if others can confirm this noise and that nothing really can be done to eliminate the noise.
Thanks.
Ron
