Reply to "Erratic smoke and chuff sounds on Lionmaster PRR T-1 Duplex"

John:  It definitely is a 11207 Prr T-1. An hour ago, I removed the cherry switch, put the motor and truck back together and put the loco on my rolling test track.  I kept the wire going from the motor board to the cherry switch attached so I could hold it in my hand and test operation.   the  other wire on the cherry switch I put to ground,  No response when I moved the flapper by hand .  Prior to doing this, I did find continuity between cherry switch output and the motor board,  The needle on my meter would jump around as the loco ran on its rollers.  Any  chance I have the cherry switch wired wrong.  From left to right with the flapper pointing down to my right  the pins from left to right are as follows. 1and 2  are crossed by a capacitor.  2 also goes to frame of engine and pin 3 goes to motor board.  There is a board under the motor board that I suspect may be involved.  Any thoughts.  Phil
