Bought a new Legacy Diesel for my grandson for Christmas and am testing it. It is a New York Central GP-30 Product Number 2433132.
It is to be used with the Lion Chief Universal Remote and the Lionchief App. He has no Legacy base.
It has some limited functions and acts much like a LionChief Plus 2.0 which I sort of expected, but I noticed that the smoke output is very low. I put 15 drops of Protosmoke in for starters (manual said 10-20 drops). Had to puff air into chamber to get it going (normal). But the smoke volume is very low and stops frequently.
Thinking I flooded it, I turned it upside down and blew out the chamber with compressed air and put in less, but the same thing happened. It smokes for awhile, but lower than any other engines I have tried with fan driven smoke.
Advice?
Thanks,
John
