Dapol slow running is superb using a Hatton’s 10 quid chip However
after an hour of running in on the rolling road fitting the recommended chip the
DJ models J94 ran terrible, juddering and stopping on corners. I think the root
cause is the lack of side play on the driving wheels together with the narrow
flanged wheels. Needless to say after along wait for this loco I am
gutted. On the plus side the mouldings
are crisp and finish and lettering first class let down by a poor performing mechanism.
So it’s on it way back to Hatton’s for a refund.
I may be unlucky and got a "Friday" job it will be interesting to see if this is a one off or a trend!

My DJ models J94 was the same I got it Tuesday and persevered with it albeit painfull to watch in the end it went back and got a refund...in future I will wait and see what other people think after buying from a new producer rather than trust all the hype in the maga and online...I've learned my mistake...Not again!
