Hi,
Has anybody had any experience of using the LGB L10340 shuttle unit with a LGB rack loco. I have one that seems to fail to pass the shuttle unit when approaching a gradient. The loco is OK on the flat and I believe it runs up the gradient without the shuttle unit - which would indicate - I think - that the decoder is OK. The loco is running in MTS mode with a Massoth XLS sound card. It would be useful to understand how the shuttle unit stops the loco and reverses the track voltage - I have the LGB user manual which doesn't do much for me. Any ideas would be much appreciated?
Thank you.
