HI i have recently purchased a new Dapol loadhaul class 122 but have an issue with it running at snails pace when on dcc. it runs a bit faster on dc but not much better. i have run it on my rolling road for 45 mins in each direction but not improved .i also have the problem that the cab light at cab 1 will not work on dc or dcc . this is with a 4 and a 6 function decoder.the compartment iights on F3 dont work either but i think that needs a Dapol mtc decoder to work . does anyone have any dealings with either the Dapol 121/122 with these issues thanks Dave
