I believe it is the Classic Toy Trains forum. Go look.

If you ever fall over in public, pick yourself up and say “sorry it’s been a while since I inhabited a body.” And just walk away.

Wrong forum. I think this is a AC O gauge. Look through the forums. You will find the proper forum. Not many look in this forum. Some new people post right in the first forum they see. Good luck.

MTH F3 stuck in neutral
Posted by dieseldoc on Friday, December 11, 2015 8:27 PM

I just purchased a used set of MTH Atlantic Coast Line  F3AA.  No instructions came with it.  I placed them on the track (Z-1000 transformer) and when I move the throttle, I get two rings of the bell and the motor sounds come on.  However I cannot get the locomotives to run.  Moving the throttle back to off and on again does not put it in forward or reverse.  Will a full reset fix this?  How do I do a reset?  Also how does one identify which version of Proto Sounds does the unit have?

Thanks,

John Black
