Paulie, this was a common problem with the MTH Railking sets. Some even had problems with melting roofs from the extreme heat (one of mine did this). What you need to do is place a strip of reflective tape on the inside of the roof, particularly above the lights. This will prevent any damage. Some of us even removed a few windows, or re-applied them so they would look half way open, to allow greater air circulation.

I received my R 17 set in February and haven't had an issue with the way it runs, its lights, or excessive heat. The only isue I had was the color. (which I mentioned in another thread.) The set was advertised as RED but it arrived MAROON. I do like the maroon and decided to keep it but I was disappointed that it did not arrive in the advertised RED color.

Just be happy that you didn't get the r142a set haha. I was going to get it but I said no after all the defects/inaccuracies I saw.
