@kcgrailgilbert8466 is it sound? Ironically I, too have a Athearn Genesis Norfolk Southern SD70 that barely runs as well. I suspect it needs a new decoder. It's a yellow box Genesis. So it's an older model.

@@Chitwn81 oh yeah I think my decoder is going out in my NS ACU cause it won't pick up speed

Dude, this is so cool.

Where do you store your rolling so they won't get messed up especially during the cold winter months?

[@Chitwn81]

Right in the garage lol. Nothing happens to em. I done been out there to run when it's 10 degrees out. I fire up the propane heater then run the trains. Sometimes the engines may be a little stiff starting off but if they're lubed then should be no issues.
