Just bought a MTH 44 tonner, 20-20882 which BTW is nice but not worth the price. 

First time on track when powered up got some garbled noises and a high pitched whine.  Managed to add engine but sound issues continued.  Talked with MTH and they said to do a factory reset.  First try must not have worked because contrary to DCS manual engine was not deleted from remote/TIU.  Another try and engine was gone.  Tried to add again and DCS cannot find.

Engine sat quietly on track like it should before it is added.

So tried it on a conventional track I have and it worked at least as far as headlight, forward and basic engine sound.

Back to the DCS track and when powered up I get headlight and engine sound immediately.  Tried to add in that state and DCS cannot find.

Do I have a bad loco or is just DCS being its usual unreliable self?
