You are correct. It is #570. Thanks for getting back. From the MTH listing, I assumed it was the correct one as the pain schemes are identical. I guess they had a premier one of it too. I know mine came in a yellow box...which I assume is PS 1.0.
I put the 9V NiMh battery back in. Just as before, I hear the click after each throw of the direction button. Even with the alkaline battery it at least attempted to switch into forward and reverse with clicks only every other direction button push. The directions stated charge for 6 or so hours to see if the battery will charge up. I will give it another 3 hours before bed I shut it off. I don't want the transformers running overnight unattended. My trains had sit idle for the better part of a year. Hopefully the battery just needed a good charge. I want to see what charging it (if it still charges) does the trick before I invest in a replacement comparable battery to what was in it (and worked fine for the past 2 or so years since I had it). I think it was never run when I bought it, but I could be wrong.
I will post more tomorrow. For now I am anxiously waiting.
