I have a 4-6-0 starter set controlled with the DCS Remote Commander. I brought the set to work to run around our office Christmas tree and it will run for 7-8 hours each weekday. My issue is the engine has had some runaway crashes over the last two weeks. Four times total and two of those instances were today, the most recent I was nearby when it began to take off and I was able to pull the plug before it careened of the track. The engine suddenly began to speed up rapidly with no user input, as if someone had opened up the theoretical throttle. The track is cleaned regularly and the receiver is about an inch from the track, so I believe signal and loss of power are not contributing factors. Any ideas on what could be the problem?
