Hi everyone-
I need some help repairing the wiring on the operating couplers on my 1952 powered and non-powered Union Pacific 2033 Alco A units. Does anyone have the wiring diagrams or anything? I would appreciate the help.

Wire it from the pickup shoe to the blob of solder on the back of a coupler.
Thanks for your help everyone! I got it working.
Mt operating coupler on a 2032 Erie unit is over heating. How do I fix that problem? Thanks in advance. Merry Christmas!
They are only activated momentarily and thus really don't have the time to overheat. If it is overheating and not being activated, you definitely have a wiring issue of sorts. You didn't inadvertently connect it to the center rail pickup and not the sliding shoe, did you?
Just bought it at a yard sale. I will take a look at your suggestion. THanks
