Area 51 Item Arrives

Nice

Got mine too. I like it and am also waiting on the set later this year or early next year.  The track was an attraction for me as well.

My Alien Radioactive Flat Car also arrived this week. Looks like a two color flash, amber then green. I also have the original Area 51 version and I like the LED’s in this car better. I’m also waiting for the set to arrive.

Has anyone else received the Area 51 Souvenir Stand? It runs one cycle and when the man inside reaches the front counter, it freezes. The motor continues to run, but no movement. If I gently rotate the ‘customer’, it completes another cycle then freezes again. Any suggestions besides sending it in for repair?

Bill - Did you get your Area 51 Souvenir Stand to work?  I received mine today and the motor doesn’t even turn on.  The light works, but that’s it.

Chris - I finally did by removing the metal base, and repositioning the ‘customer’. Once operation was verified, I re-assembled the accessory. Appears to work properly now.

You may already know this, but moving the switch to ‘ON/MOM’ on the Remote Control Box only powers up the lights. Press and hold the button down to activate the motor. I’m using the optional 8” 3-pin female pigtail (6-82038) for power.

If I use the 8” 3-pin female pigtail (6-82038) without the Remote Control Box, the white wire powers the motor along with the red/black wires for the lights.

Thanks Bill - I appreciate the help!

I will give it a shot in the morning. I believe that it’s operator error in this case as I’m used to the old newsstands that were on all of the time.

Lionel did a good job with this version.
