Well, Its been about a year now since I upgraded to the Lionel Legacy system and I would like to run an MPC era conventional engine that I recently purchased. The only problem is I cant figure out how to do it. I keep refering back to the Legacy users manual but that just makes matters more confusing and the older I get the less patience I have. I'm using 135 watt PowerHouse bricks with PowerMasters and the PowerMaster Bridge. Thanks to anyone who can help me

I do not think the power master can be controlled by the Cab2.  I think it will only run with a Cab1.  

 

The Legacy Powermaster is not available yet.  You can get a TPC300 and use that.  I just got one and it works great to run my MPC and postwar trains.

 He said he has the powermaster bridge, and that lets the cab2 talk to th powermaster. I have 7 powermasters that I control with my cab2.
