Hello,
Occasionally, I see ads on ebay for Lionel TMCC steam engines with Odyssey. I would to purchase Odyssey motors that ramp up smoothly. Does anyone know when Lionel stopped making Odyssey motors with jerky starts and began making Odyssey motors with smooth starts? For example, the date of the first catalog with advertisements for smooth Odyssey motors.
At one point, I owned a Lionel scale steamer with the jerky Odyssey. It was almost impossible to start the engine moving without repeated stuttering/jerking.
Thanks
