Lionel Berkshire Jr Steam Engine & Tender 6-18765 - Doesn't run at slow speed with chuffing. Sounds don't begin until the locomotive is already moving at a significant speed, then suddenly come on. Sound also stops before loco has stopped. Any ideas?

I think that this locomotive doesn't use a battery to keep the sounds going at low voltages, so checking the battery probably doesn't apply. But have you checked that the wheels and roller contacts are all clean? If these have accumulated some grime, this can reduce the voltage getting to the sound board.
