I suggest that you go back to the shop you bought it from and discuss the problem with them. I note from your other post that you are using the Hornby Select DCC Controller. Hornby should work with Hornby!

Best wishes,

Good DCC opperation does require clean track and wheels so cleaning both might be the first thing to try.

Glad you have sorted it out. If you clean your track before use and keep wheels clean you should have fewer problems.

Incidentally I would not rule out using other firm's model. However I would seek advice from you local model shop.

Best wishes,
