Hi,
I just bought one of these lovely models for my layout, and ran it for a while under DC as per the manufacturers instructions, then I chipped it for DCC, again as per instructions. Since it has been chipped, it has run very warm, almost hot to the touch.
Other Heljan loco's I have exhibit similar tendencies, though this one runs the hottest.
Is there something wrong with the loco, or something else I need to do with it ?
TIA,
Ian
