I have 2 Heljan 31s and I have recently fitted them both with Lok Sound V4 XL decoders.
Running them both slowly on my test track as a light engine everything seems to work just fine, however put them on my layout and ask them to haul my parcels train consisting of 4 GUVs and 3 CCTs and its a disaster. One part of the layout they seem ok then they gradually slow down to a crawl even though the controller says 90 (out of 128). Both of them do the same thing, both have the motor set up using CV54 set to 0.
Non of other Heljan locos do this they just run round fine.
Has anyone had a similar experience or suggest anything.
Thanks
Richard
