Ted, The powerG doese have a " burning " smell to it for a while, but it will go away after some use. I have one and love it. I run MTH DCS with it. I don't know alot about LGBG loco's but maybe you should check the power pick-ups on it to see if they are dirty. Or check the track to see if it has some dirty
spots on it.
