Which Bachmann J do you have? regular, Plus, or Spectrum?<BR>
<BR>
All are very different.<BR>

Just guessing. I fried my J's lights with a Soundtraxx Steam decoder from 2002? era. Sounds great, but I cooked the LED lights. I'l re-visit the lights with MV lenses and Grain-Of-Dust lights.<BR>

<div>I hate my Bachmann J because of the wimpiest mechanism I've even seen in a 'modern' HO steam engine. </div>
<div>I'm seriously looking at Gutting it and putting in a real motor and NWSL gearbox. </div>
<div>This all depends on axle diameter. </div>
<div>My Brazelton "Auto-Quarter" is for 1/8" axles and slightly smaller Brass imports size.
