Bachmann 6937, 32-001 “Conyngham Hall” Stopped Working
32-001 Bachmann OO Gauge ‘6937’ ‘Conyngham Hall’ BR Green, Late Crest
Tested on the test track and dead as a door knob – no movement at all.
Body Removed
On first inspection, I could not see anything obviously wrong but still completely static, so I put the track current direct to the motor and still dead.
Using my thumb, I moved the armature and the wheels around into a different position and it all sprang to life.
So I think it has been sitting static for a long time and just needs a bit of lubrication and a 30 minute run on the rolling road each way.
Reassembled everything and back on the test track to double test before back in the box.
