Thanks for the advice guys.  This loco  was purchased in store  and doesn't have sound just lights and and working smokestack.  I am just learning about dcc and plan on redoing this layout in dcc or starting from scratch with a new layout.  Thanks again I appreciate it

hey everyone,

so i received a dcc equipped ho scale steam locomotive for christmas.  the package said that it would work on a dcc layout of a conventional dc layout.  my layout is currently dc powered.  i put the locomotive on the track and it went well for a few second but now it goes really slow and stalls everyone couples inches.

did i ruin this thing already?  hope not since it was kinda expensive.

thanks
