Hi! I want to add my Lionel Veranda Turbine to my Legacy system.  It was assigned Train #9 at the factory (locomotive is assigned as engine 1 and tender as "engine" 2) and it runs just fine as Train 9 under my old TMCC layout (upstairs bedroom).  When I try to run it on my Legacy system on my big layout, I can address it as Train #9 but it comes up in a generic TMCC mode with no control icons.  Can someone (Marty? Chris? others?) please give me step by step instructions for adding it properly to Legacy? E.g., do I have to start by entering the locomotive and the tender as separate engines and, if so, what's next?  Help would be really appreciated!

Thanks!

Harold

I found a good video by Marty E. that guided me through the process.  In a nutshell, here's the deal:

1. renumber Veranda as engine 73

2. renumber Veranda tender as "engine" 74

I did 1. and 2. on small layout that has TMCC and DCS (not Legacy)

3. load Veranda as an engine into Legacy system (on my big layout) using generic diesel module and then name and number the engine

4. load Veranda tender as an engine into Legacy system and name and number as "engine" (74)

5. create MU as per instructions in Marty's youtube video on how to create TMCC MU on Legacy system. 

Cheers!
