one thing you should try first is cut power when you hears sounds if sounds died immediately your battery is DEAD! you can try charging battery and then try again!
you might try a conventional reset while powered up and not moving, if it resets you'll hear 2 whistle toots. if it wont reset board probably needs repaired if you can find one it is a ps 2 3 volt board inside the engine or tender! p.s did you charge the battery before you tried the engine?

No I was able to test that out and the sounds (and hopefully hence the battery) seem to be okay.

If its a board issue I might try taking it to the hobby shop in the next city over to upgrade it to PS 3.0 (if they have the parts of course!), albeit I won't be able to get there in person till at earliest next April...
