Atlas Ho Train Track
My HO scale train won't run?
So I've got a really old HO scale train. I found it in my attic, cleaned it and put it together. It's a civil war Model Train. It has a black casing with 1272 printed below a window. I'm using atlas track pieces and a model UL 50 toy transformer by kf industries. The train will light up, so the connection is good. But it wil only move after I rotate the motor 5-10 revolutions, then it starts off, but stops only a few inches from where it started. I need it to run on it's own the whole time.
Thanks for any help
Sounds like there is a sort. Here in Southern Maryland we have a train store that woks on toy trains. Look in your area for a train dealer. They may direct you.
