I attached a video! I also tested another loco and it works, wanna rule out any issues with the track. This was an online order,I don't want to open the loco as I will return it if it doesn't move. Let me know if I'm doing anything wrong

People ask questions and people offer suggestions and solutions. As a result, people "learn how to use the equipment".
