No luck at all no matter what reset procedures I try. Does this trolley designed to work with station sounds using an MTH transformer only. Thanks.  Bill Makel

Bill:

First, which PS system does it have?

Assuming it is PS-2 or PS-3, you can program the PCC station stops and announcements using a post-war Lionel transformer but you also need a Lionel Sound Activation button (#6-5906).  That button is needed for not only triggering the bell sounds but also for the second step in the station programming process in which you depress the button to scroll through the stations to pick the one you want.  I have done it using a postwar ZW but because the whistle switch is very sensitive, it takes awhile to get it right.  It definitely is much easier with an MTH transformer.  I haven’t tried it with a modern Lionel transformer that has a built-in bell button.

Hope this helps, 

Bill T
