I had a nice Christmas pressie of a Farish Cornish Express Train Set, complete with a DCC Fitted Class 42 and with permission to sell off track & controller in order to fund more coaches.
Just tried running it on main layout using a Bachman Dynamis on address 3, no response to whatever I do, although afterwards a chipped Class 52 ran perfectly
Tried it using a Sprog 3 on programming track but the Sprog couldn't recognise anything on the track although when I put a chipped 08 on the track it recognised that.
The loco is fitted with a Bachmann 36-558 chip, you know, the early one which only works on DCC, so I can't go the DC route.
???
Don't want to take it apart in case that affects the warranty anyone got any advice before I have to return it to Liverpool?

Hi
You probably will need to take the body off to check the chip is inserted correctly and is in the right way round (pin 1 - pin1)
if this does not correct it return it from whence it came for exchange.
