I recently acquired a Madison Hardware Special Edition tinplate Lionel Backshop. I plan on using it in conventional mode. It works fine and has been rewired with additional lights that are on a separate circuit that allows the lights to operate without the other functions operating. This was the modification Madison Hardware added.
Does anyone know if Madison Hardware replaced the motherboards in all the backshops they modified?
Unfortunately the smoke unit will not work in conventional mode I am not sure why this is. I would like to make it operational or replace it with a MTH unit. Any advice would be appreciated.
