Hi
I have bought a Hornby Class 466 Networker EMU from ebay. The model arrived, and appeared in good nick, but not perfect.
Well the unit has only one axle which is motorised, and it wheel spins like crazy when the motor unit is run on its own, but it does go. When it is attached to the rest of the train, it just sits still, wheels spinning and going nowhere.
Any ideas of how to get more traction. The powered axle does have traction tyres. These do appear to be in good contact with the wheel, so the slippage appears to be between tyre and rail.
Many thanks
Ed
