I have just received one each of the new Eastleigh & Sultan (can confirm black grilles on both). I have found an unusual running problem with Sultan. On 3rd radius curves, no problem. On second radius curves, no problem in either direction when the loco is facing one way, but when turned, consistently de-rails when entering the curve in either direction. The problem happens when the speedometer cable is on the outside of the curve. I can't be sure, but I think it might be the top of the speedo cable preventing sufficient bogie travel. But yet Eastleigh, with identical bogies, has no problems at all. Could this just be a manufacturing tolerance thing? Any advice gratefully received before I have to return it.
