One of the joys of buying a new house is the basement that comes with it. Not my first basement of course, but the joy that this basement space is shared only with a sump pump and a hot water heater. Another joy is unpacking all of the bags, boxes and tubs filled with many long forgotten trains purchased over the years.
Some of the tubs have been moved several times without being opened. One such tub has a brand new MTH Railking Florida East Coast F-3 AA Diesel Set RK-2007LP, still in box. I vaguely remember buying it.
The box shows also shows that the DCRU comes from QSI and it is equipped with Proto Sound. Checking the MTH website says it was in the 1997 Spring Catalog.
I will assume that this is PS1? So, where do I start besides lube and grease? Do I charge it on the track or get the battery eliminator?
I have the manual and it is strong on operating, but weak on the shortcomings of PS1.
