I have a '99 Large scale Bachmann "Prospector" train set up that I have not used for 10 years....excellent condition however.   I don't recall how to make it smoke (no directions in the old box), can't get the tender to make sounds, can't get the cars to light up (with new battery)....train runs good with light on engine working. Help to get other lights working and get the engine to smoke and tender to work.  Thanks :-[

smoke has a on/ off switch in front of engine-cars also have a switch- sound has switch at back of engine. Check to see if they are on
