I have just unboxed a bachmann class 108 the 32900A - the ones with the headcode boxes. I fitted a lenz silver decoder in the motor car, and left the trailer car unfitted with (thinking I might put a DCC Sound decder in sometime of which another post int the future) - anyway the light behaviour I get gives me two problems -

a> The interior lights only seem to give me three pools of light - see attached photo - with the middle of each coach unlit.

b> the trailer headcode is NEVER lit.

Is this behaviour as expected?

Just received my Class 108 32-900A, very impressed with the running, detail & build quality. I'm using Bachmann 36-553 Decoders, apart from giving the same address to both, should be plug & play with correct lighting configuration. I find the overall lighting effect to be very pleasing.


Regards

thanks to both.

I cant answer q on dcc decoder as i used lenz silver. But to remove body I used two bendable bits of plastic (cut from the clear packaging that is used to hold some models - slip one each side of the cab and ease/wiggle/swear at it until body comes off cab end first.
