If you are trying to operate this car with a regular uncoupling/unloading track (UCS or similar) and pushing the 'Unload' button, then that is your problem.
Most operating cars with sliding shoes have the coil hot wire connected to one shoe, and the ground wire connected to the other shoe. When pressing 'Unload', one rail of the track is hot, and the other is grounded, operating the mechanism. Since the 3359 is wired to have the coil hot wire to BOTH shoes, when you press 'Unload', the wiring shorts out the uncoupling track, and the breaker trips.
You can try operating the car by pressing the 'UNCOUPLE' button. That energizes BOTH rails, which should then properly power the car.
Note the car originally came with 2 OTC lockons to properly energize the car. See here for the schematic to properly wire the lockons.
