I have a 2-4-4 Forny made by Spectrum and when I purchased it at the train show at a very good price , I had no place it run it , so on a keep of faith it came home with me. It was very clean, so onto my test track it went. It ran speed up and down and that was it. No head light, fire box flicker Cab, or back up light. To many electrical malfunctions, so off to the work bench. To my shock, there was no plug and play  board where one should be except for a makeshift board. So I need a plug and play priortity electronic board to plug into the main mother board. Does anyone have one witch you could have hanging around which you can donate to Me or I can pay fore.  HELP ME PLEASE

No the boards are not in the parts listing.

will a human answer the phone in the parts department?

unfortunately, the "DC dummy board" has a number of components to control the lights, and no circuit diagram is available as far as I know.

1. I would go to a large G scale forum like MLS and ask there.
2. you could buy an adapter plug from Bachmann and do some wiring to make the lights work...

I do not know for sure, but I believe the flicker electronics just need to be powered,
