Hello guys and gals....
How about Barry or GGG or Marty have a handly little booket in "tips and advices to keep the older PS-1 systems running ? I am sure you guys know about the problems I had with my Railking NW-2 BCR's and shame on me for bad mouthing at Pat's home made no label black BCR (GOOD one) and J&W's defective ( won't hold a charge) BCR. I still have it but don't know what to do with it and still waiting to hear from Vincent or Bob from modeltrainstuff.com. (not bad mouthing this time). I know there are thousands of PS-1 systems out there running on layouts. I would buy the little booket to keep my NW-2 running in next 20 years. This engine is already 17 years old and appeals to have its original boards and no zinc pest on the die-cast metal parts and no plastic screw post cracks , paint nearly perfect so I think it pretty darned good for it's age. The box and the form showed worse for wear and tear than the engine itself ! That means there are thousands PS-1 engines still in stores unsold NOS (New Old Stock) waiting for buyers who knew little or nothing about PS-1 like myself. Marty, GGG and Barry could write up a 10 page little booket in how to keep the PS-1 working right. I would buy the booket and keep with with the owner's manual. The booket should be the same size as the owner manual that come with the engines so it could be stored in the boxes with the owner's manual. The booket should be in large print or text for easy reading. How about it guys ? it will be of great help to thousands of PS-1 owners ?
