Like George says, if there's motor voltage, it should chuff. If, for some reason that's not consistent, add a 5W 100 ohm resistor as a motor load. I don't know why you'd need this, but if you do...
You are a smart man 
I will look for that 5W 100 ohm resister thanks. My reasoning is because I want to put Big Boy protosounds in my aux water tender behind my upgraded Big Boy so I can silence PS2 and still enjoy the sounds of PS1 when running conventional with smooth speed control and all the running benefits of PS2 if I want. I like flexibility and I love the PS1 Big Boy sounds, but I want the best of both worlds and I want to be able to choose one or the other with ease. This makes great sense. Thank you!
