Guys, I have an older(3 years) Polar Express set Berkshire locomotive that I sent back to Lionel for other service issues. While it was there, they upgraded the smoke system with a new resistor and wadding. Now that I have it back, it seems to me that the lower speed smoke performance is worse. I really have to have the engine running at a high speed to get smoke. As soon as I slow it down the smoke stops almost immediately. Am I just being picky? I recall in the "old days" (the days of smoke pellets) that high speed was needed for smoke. Of course, at that time, high speed wasn't a problem for me :-). Anyone out there with the same or differing PE Berk experience?
Thanks,
Ron
