Hi Seth,
I ended up doing what Barry suggested: wiring the sawmill to a MTH AIU port and controlling it with my DCS handheld. Then I removed the Lionel Powermaster from the layout and went to the expense of converting my TMCC engines to MTH DCS. Since I assume you have no Lionel Powermaster this should be an easy solution. Just don't connect a Lionel Powermaster to your layout.
Hope this helps.
Tom

Tom,

Thanks so much for the reply. So I’m still a little confused about how the wiring needs to go. I do not currently have the AIU - is that something I would need to add? What wires would I use and how would I connect them? Sorry I’m not more astute with this! This is my first experience with Lionel accessories, and I’m finding them a little frustrating. :-)
