For the price of these cars Bachmann should have included a capacitor. To get the cars to couple really close you have to buy Roco couplers (drop in replacement for the Bachmann couplers). These are very nice cars but for the asking price they should have included the above.

I know you will not want to hear this, but you might could loosen the wippers(pushing them away a little bit.) OR add some track wippers in one place to pick up power? That's the first thing that comes to mind. I had built my caboose lighting and made my own wheel pickups. I had to adjust them until I got the right.

It won't make much of a difference because the track pick up adds resistance to the inside of the wheels

Just received mine today and they all have the same issue as yours. I lubed the axles and electrical pickups, but that did not make a noticeable performance difference. I agree with a statement you made - this is the worst performing rolling stock in my fleet as well. Additionally, my cars have a very noticeable rattle when the volume is on any level other than low. The volume doesn't have memory, so you need to adjust it every time you power it up if you prefer any level other than default. Visually, a beautiful model. But functionally, Scaletrains missed on this one. I'll be returning my units.
