I have been given a 2332. I disassembled it to check lubrication. I admittedly did not pay attention to placement of the horn and resonator box. Now I can't fit the horn and resonator box into the engine. Can anyone show me an assembly drawing of this engine. I've seen diagrams of this engine with a vertical motor. My engine has the motor mounted on an angle horizontally. I would appreciate any help.

I have 3 sets that I have kept since I got them in 1975-76. I also have additional track, a few electric switches, a coal station and a couple of bridges. The sets are the Sante Fe Double Diesel, the Yard King, and the Southern Express. I don't have the original boxes for most things but Most things are in great shape and all the engines operate.

I live in South West Florida and will box and ship them (at the lowest shipping cost I can find).

I'd like to get $150 plus shipping.

Message me for more details.

Also found a switch that was shorting the track. After 30+ years it is running once again.

I was wondering if such a thing existed as well.  Please let me know if you find anything!

The kids and I set everything up only to learn our transformer has some sort of issue. Christmas eve and no chance of finding another.

Is this something I might be able to fix? I know enough to be dangerous but am capable of disassembly, soldering, light troubleshooting, etc.

This video should tell the whole story, but basically on a workbench with no load and a voltmeter hooked up it seems to operate fine. With the train when just plugged in it seems to work fine, but then after a minute or two it will stop, the voltage will drop, and the output will "stutter" on and off a bit, and basically just not work. Sometimes knocking it on the side will cause it to work again for a few moments.

I've taken it apart and nothing seems loose or wrong that I can see.

Only thing to add is that the other output does the same thing. All the fixed voltage outputs read as they should (although did not check under load). Does the same thing on two engines (a Williams and a 90's Lionel).

Help save Christmas!
