Wiring a PreWar 259e steam engine

[Uncle Vinny]

Greetings.  I am looking for a little help.  I have an old hand-me-down 259 e steam engine prewar from my father and the wiring inside is all dry rotted and incomplete. I am partially through re-wiring but I am stumped as to how the direction unit connects to the rest of the engine.  The engine itself looks in very good condition and that is why I am spending time trying to get it to run.  In particular, I need to find out how the solenoid is connected.  I am pretty sure I have the rest OK. Is there a wiring diagram that anyone can send me or perhaps just tell me if anyone knows.  I appreciate any help.  I am a bit of a novice but I've fiddled around with this stuff somewhat.

Any help will be appreciated.  Thank you.

Much thanks for the documents sent they were quite helpful in deed.  That was kind of you.

I was wondering how I could get my own hard copies of the document.  Could you help. 

Again Thanks for your sharing and kindness.

I have copies I can send you by email.

What I do with those is save them to disk, then use a PDF unlocker to remove the password.
