I am trying to get my 2321 locomotive from 1955 running again. I did a minimal cleaning of the wheels, roller, and the old grease from the motors with alcohol. The battery compartment is clean so I installed a new battery. I put the locomotive on my test track and it will go forward and reverse. The uncouplers also work. The lights work.
- How do I test the horn since it did not work using the transformer whistle button?
- The top of the shell needs a good cleaning. Should I use dish soap and a toothbrush? Anything like decals I need to stay away from?
- What do you recommend to clean some minor surface rust from the frame?
I did some searches but must not have used the proper search terms. Thanks in advance for your help.
