Question on MTH GN F3 352B & C

CpbOGR Forum Member

Hi there...I’m new to this forum and just getting into the hobby and I got a question about these 2 units I inherited from my late uncle years ago. It’s been in a box for years and it’s my first time trying to check it out. So basically, I only have the B and C units. I placed them on the tracks and lights turned on and headlight blinked but wouldn’t move forward. I was told by the local hobby shop that I need the A unit to make this set works. So, my question is, is there a chance I can make these units run without the A unit? It seems that it is very difficult to look for just the A unit online and using these units as a “very heavy” paperweight 😀 would be a waste, considering that they are like brand new (?). Any help would be much appreciated.

Happy Labor Day weekend and Happy RAILROADING!
