Hello. I bought a Backshop 7 years ago and it waited for a layout. Build is in progress so i unpacked the Backshop. I bought it new. Couldn't tell whether the boards were new. I think the mainboard is upgraded, but I'm not sure. The posts here were very helpful, thank you. I rewired the MB as provided in the 02/99 Addendum and everything works. However, I do not hear a warning bell before he doors open, nor does it appear I have any control over the smoke output. Are these features added with the new motherboard? In any event, it does need more lighting for sure, and as suggested above, i intend to add a welding lighting effect as well. Oh, forgot to mention, I run it in Command mode from a Cab-2. I did search the Lionel manual database but nothing turns up for for "backshop" or the product number. Thanks for the links to those. Happy Halloween!
