That’s good to hear. I returned my DCC Ready D9006 a couple of weeks ago due to this same problem. Unfortunately, my 55015 is starting to slow, speed up, slow while on a steady voltage. It’s nowhere near as bad as D9006, but if it gets any worse, I fear I’ll have to return that for repair too.

Where did you get The Flying Scotsman thistle headboard from?

Neither. I run DC analogue only. When I put 3v through an oval of track and bring the locomotives onto it, the normal running one (No.15) causes the voltage to change slightly, whereas the slow slow running one (No.6) causes the voltage to drop to just below 2. Haven’t yet worked out how to measure amp levels with a multimeter yet! Using a Gaugemaster controller No.6 needs to be at 50 to match the running speed of No.15 at 30. I have various locomotives from different manufacturers, but the discrepancy between the controller setting and the speed the engines travel isn’t as big as this. Just wondering whether there’s something wrong with the motor in No.6?

Has anyone with multiple Deltics noticed differing performance between them? I have 2 DCC Ready models and one requires more voltage than the other to get going and also to run at a similar speed to the other. Both have been run in and have been used for a similar amount of time since I got them.
