(DIR) Return Create A Forum - Home --------------------------------------------------------- Lionel Trains (HTM) https://lioneltrains.createaforum.com --------------------------------------------------------- ***************************************************** (DIR) Return to: Lionel Maintenance & Repair ***************************************************** #Post#: 1226-------------------------------------------------- N00B Question By: BeachTrains Date: December 25, 2015, 11:19 am --------------------------------------------------------- I am completely new to the world of Lionel trains. Santa brought my son the Thomas & Friends remote train set for Christmas. After assembling the tracks and applying power there is a static-like noise that comes from the tracks with the locomotive is sitting on the powered tracks but not moving. Once the train begins to move the static-like noise goes away but then returns when the train is no longer in motion. Is this normal? If it isn't, can it be fixed? Thank you & Merry Christmas! *****************************************************
