Help!!Need Link to Lionel Website for TMCC & Backshop Installation!!!!

Hey Guys!

Just getting started with command control,and I would like to have link to the original directions for Hooking up a Cab-1 Trainmaster TMCC system.Looks like it has only 1 terminal.?????Where do I hook up the transformer???(Man,I am I new to this!)

 

I also need the link for installing The 6-22918 #446 Locomotive Backshop. I had the links saved,but after Lionel revamped their website,the links are broken!!!!(Ahrrhhh!!)(Ran out of ink for the printer that day!!)  

 

The Backshop did come with it's original paperwork,New In Box.The paperwork is dated 10/98,and it does say "Please note the differences in the wiring section when installing your #446 Backshop.

 

Does this mean that this paperwork reflects the error Lionel made in the wiring directions of the first backshops from 1997? I know that the previous link I saved had an addendum to the Backshop wiring directions that reflected an error Lionel made with the wiring terminals themselves.  

 

Did they actually fix their mistake as production went along? I heard that the Backshops issued in 98' are superior to the ones that ere first issued.Is this true?Did I actually get lucky and get a GOOD ONE???!!!  

 

The directions I have say to hook the LEFT terminal of the Lockon to the right clip of the first set of clips on the right hand side of the backshop(Center rail),and to hook the RIGHT terminal of the lockon(outside rail hook up)to the left clip on the Backshop.

 

The center and left clips are designated for use with the enclosed switches for conventional operation.

 

I would just HATE to hook this thing up wrong and fry it,and I know this can happen if you wire it up wrong.  

 

Can I trust the directions from 10/98??? I turn to you,my train brothers let me know if this edition reflects their admission of the wiring error they made.I am leaning towards yes,but I thought I should ask and be safe before sorry.  

 

This thing was not cheap,and I like it a lot.I just don't want to bust my balloon and cry like a kid on this one!!!  

 

Thanks,Kenny Baughman
