Connect the 'U' and 'A' terminals of the 1033 to the track lockon.
If you are getting power to the track, the track and wiring are good.

If the loco will not move, it is possible that the 'E'-unit is locked in neutral. Move the lever on top of the engine, turn the power on and off a couple of times, and see if it moves. If it still does not move, you may either have a faulty 'E'-unit or a problem with the loco.

The buzzing in the tender sounds like the relay. If the whistle does not blow, then either the whistle motor needs servicing, or the whistle rectifier in the 1033 transformer may be bad.
