My Mobile Station 2 with SW 3.55 did not (seem to) detect my new E71 ( 39771) when placed on a segment where it electrically was alone. I then did a "find" and it passed away from mfx and landed in DCC. Only the basic functions were there, up to F4 or so. Plus, every command took about a a second before it took effect. This did not work, really. I thought for a while that the beautiful E71 soon was to be on a journey back to where it came from. I had 13 locos already registered, this was to be #14. I decided to do a factory reset of MS2, as all I tried was with no success. I have loco cards for them all, so I was fast up and running. When 39771's time came I saw the "mfx" on the screen, I think without me doing a "Find" first. I then decided to just keep waiting, even if there was no progress bar or "wait.." there. I waited and then bingo! All the functionality was up! I may not have waited while "mfx" on the display on the first trial. Anyhow, it did come to a dead end on that occasion. SW should take height for user trouble like this. The MS2 was as lost as I was, I think

Didn’t have any problems with this one, but I have had a couple of locomotives that registered without showing the progress bar on cs3. Did you get the matching set of wagons as well?

No I didn't get the wagons. But yes, I love the locomotive! Ligting the engineer's cabs individually, nice! Running with F18 rail joints with operating sounds off, quite nice! Comparing it with my scale 1 model from Fine Models shows what they need to emphasize on when they go down in scale:  (Isn't it possible to upload pictures, do I have to have ref by a url?)
