Joe,

Thanks for the input.  I have read past threads about the whistle controller issue and noted the CTT article.  I do not access to this Nov 1998 issue.  Would you be able to scan it and send to cliffgreen@cox.net?

I have also have a Lionel 5906 whistle controller, but the wires are about 20 gauge and I have 14 gauge to the tracks.  Can this be rewired, if I can figure out how to take it apart?

Thanks

Both Williams engines perform whistle/bell in neutral with 1VDC, but not in forward and reverse using ZW and K-line whistle controller because the Volt ohm meter registers .5 VDC!  This 1/2 VDC is adequate for Lionel and MTH , but not enough for the Williams.  How can I provide more VDC or adjust the engines to sound with less?

Thanks,

Cliff
