Thanks to bmoran4, and the forum info, we're making progress on the Lionel 2026 in question. However, we still haven't solved our original problem - the loco lacks traction with more than a couple cars in tow. Can anyone point us to forum information on how to address driving wheel slippage on this loco? We don't believe it had a traction tire(s). Can anyone confirm? What else beyond cleaning the track carefully can we try to reduce slipping and increase traction, enough to pull at least 4-5 cars? Thanks so much for any help!
