MTH DCS System

Walter is hoping for some help from someone who might know how to fix his model train problem:

“Sometimes, it seems for no reason, my MTH Engines fail to respond to the remote control. Even though the engines (or engine) is on the track, the remote says ‘engine not on track’. This happens when the engines were running correctly and powered down and you come back a week later and this condition exist. I play with wires, the engines, and check the track until it finally responds…but I don’t know what the problem is. This has happened enough times, that I have become very frustrated with the DCS system. I have both Lionel and MTH engines and love the MTH engines more than the Lionel which makes this condition all the more frustrating?”
