Broadway Limited Blueline Engines With Decoders

Don has two Broadway Limited Blueline engines without decoders and asks:

“I have two Broadway Limited Blueline engines that will not run. They both have sound but no decoder for DCC. The have a plug that is difficult to plug in. I thought that I had not properly inserted the plug but when on a live track you get headlight and rear light according to the direction indicated, but they will not respond. This occurs after installing a remommended decoder. Does anyone have any thoughts on why?”

    Don, log onto the internet,www.factorydirecttrains.com, on first listing punch in HO blueline by BLI, for info on your problem, you can also ask questions about it at email…[email protected]…With a DCC system on your layout with what you have stated,by punching in factory default 3, that should bring your loco to life, then punch in the engine number in the program mode as per your DCC system instructions. This problem should be able to be solved, if everything is set up correct….The web site will help…
