Hi folks.   I was hoping that someone could help me with an issue concerning the new issue of Lionel's  6-82028 #352 Icing Station, Plug and Play version.  I recently purchased this item and am having some difficulty loading the cubes.  The iceman is not pushing the cubes far enough to place them into any ice car and they drop onto the track.  I have increased voltage hoping he'd work harder but no luck.  I am using a standard 10 inch straight piece of Fastrack.  I looked into using an operating track with the roadbed removed but that clearance seemed very tight.   I know some folks have had issue with the man not retracting far enough but mine does.  In fact I had that problem with an older version which this new one is replacing.  That sat in a box for 10 years (literally) before I even opened it and tried to use it.  Got frustrated, just bought a new one.  Am I missing something?  Thanks!

What about the distance between the track and the station ?   I see you mentioned something about it.  Are you concerned about locomotive clearances ?   You mentioned that you have Fastrack.  Is the track elevation too high ?   If you shimmed the station up a bit, would that help ?
