Tinsley no.3

Soo, didn't think I'd end up here but here we are, I have a roco multimaus controller which in the past has "possibly " killed 2 lenz silver mini's [say possibly bc they were second hand] by getting them very hot. My lok sound v3.5 decoder has just shut itself down due to getting very hot. The decoder after cooling seems to have survived the ordeal. I have read that the roco multimaus output too high of a current but I'm not sure? please can someone help [not to be rude but don't just say "your decoder is a dud" I'm pretty sure it's fine.] =/

Thanks for the suggestions, I have a few of the parts suggested to hand so I will have a look.

Do you have any information on 'nim', I own one of its name plates passed down from my grandfather when his dad used to recondition sentinel/ industrial shunter. Any info or pictures on it would be great. 😐

It's as simple as the title. 😅 Do the j36 and j15 use the sane chassis, I would like to know due to building a gem j36 kit and have tried a bachman jinty and a Hornby Drummond 700 and both looked wrong. I don't want to spend £110+ on a loco to have it be of no use. Thanks 😃
