       Problem with Celebration 2341 on Fastrack 036 Switches

       Hello,
       I am new here and hoping to receive information about a problem
       that I am having. I have a like new 2341 Celebration 2341 FM
       Trainmaster. It sparks or resets while crossing over 036
       switches. It happens all the time on straight sections or the
       curve sections. I have 14 switches on my layout, some have just
       straight tracks on either side of the switch. I wrote to
       Lionel's Service center, but I am not satisfied with their
       answer. They claim I need larger rollers. My guess is that
       smaller rollers are needed. Strange thing about this
       Trainmaster. Unlike older Lionel Trainmaster engines, the
       flanged wheels are the 1st and 3rd. Older postwar Trainmaster
       engines have the flanged wheels as the 1st and 2nd. The non
       flanged wheel is the 3rd set. I think my problem is with the new
       design. Does anyone have experience with this type of problem?
