Thank you!!! The "press AUX 1" instruction was left out of my manual. Now everything works fine with this loco.

Power & Control / How to set up the Torpedo 238 locomotive
« on: December 19, 2015, 04:20:50 pm »
In 1997, I received a 238 Lionel Torpedo Locomotive as a gift from my wife. At the time, I had some problems setting it up with the Trainmaster remote control. I contacted Lionel and received a set of "corrected" instructions for setting it up. Now these instructions are "lost" in an old computer.
I've got the loco up and running, but some of the controls on the trainmaster remote do not work properly (specifically the volume control). This is my only Trainmaster controlled unit and as such is Engine #1. I have checked and followed the instructions in the on-line manual.

MY QUESTION: Does anyone know the correct instructions for setting this loco up which are different from those in the manual??

Thanks,

Lionel Maintenance & Repair / Re: Bolt broken off in a driving wheel of Loco #773

Dave, Thanks for the reply. Would you please ask your retired Lionel repair person where we can get those very small easy-outs. My Lionel repair person would like to know as he has tried since my 773 is not the only unit with this problem he is facing.
I really appreciate your taking time to ask this question of him and to reply to my post.

Harmmmmmoniously (I'm also a barbershopper),
