MTH Southern

can not be of assistance without the product number.

So you are running conventionally?  Did you try a conventional reset with the bell whistle button? The manual tells you how to do this.  G

I do not have a product number, I bought this back in 2002 as an RTR set. It is the green southern passenger set.

Yes I tried to reset the engine and that didn't work. I have/had a dcs remote and TIU and tried to reset it with that as well. Unfortunately I then updates the TIU to the latest software and now I have multiple flashes on the red LED, so that no longer works. I have posted that in the wanted section so if anyone has an old TIU I am interested.

Perhaps if you posted a photo or three it would give us a better idea of what you have, There are literally thousands of Southern items out there!  :-)

Here are 2 pics that I took of the train.

Ahah, I see the infamous ‘PS2’ sticker on the bottom, perhaps there’s been a circuit board failure; a PS2 board in combination with a dead battery.

Yes, it is a ps2 unit. Like I said when you put it on the track you hear the relay click and everytime you cycle power you can hear it click but then nothing happens.

Aaron - If you haven't done so already, you should use the Search Function on the OGR Forum because there's been several Posts/Comments regarding the very symptom you describe; many of which ultimately turned out to be a bad board.  That said, only a diagnostic check would confirm the cause of the problem.

Good Luck in getting your engine fixed!

From your description and photos, your engine is very likely to be the Southern 4-6-2 Bantam Pacific Steam RTR Train Set w/PS 2.0

Old PS-2 5V engine, so board failure could be the issue, but other factors too.  Bad harness, blown audio amp and other factors.  A tech can test board separately and diagnose the problem.  G

I had to replace 3 boards from PS-2 engines in the mid-2000s era because I was re-charging inadequate batteries. I was new to O scale then but now I won't even think of running old MTH ps1 and ps2 engines without BCRs installed.

Ditto!
