Hi guys

Just picked up a 8500 steamer from a yard sale

Does anyone know if this will run on AC

                                           Thanks

It should.

[sir james I]

Put it on the track if it's AC it will go. and I think it is. If the motor chatters Turn It Off. it's DC. I checked the book, it's AC.

It runs

Thanks for the help
