Brand F-ing new and it doesn’t work, Great! Just like the rest of Lionel’s crap thats made by some slant eyed zipperheaded riceball! Probably has lead paint on it as well. Now what, TMCC just so I can have a horn to work?
for that item not to work is rare,The one whistle I found it would not work with was the Hogwarts, do you have an older whistle tender you could try? oh and don’t forget, ALL of our trains come from over there. except some Weaver.
It better not!! Not when 99.8% of my stuff is PW, unless we lost that war!!! Yes I do have one, didn’t think of that. If that works, then what? Thanks, the struggle continues!

You are out of line there with the comments.
I was refering to now. not the good old days.
I know you were James, not a problem. Geez, some people are so sensative to harsh words, just look at some of the posts about new Lionel on any train forum and Im not outta line! OK, here’s the latest. None of my PW or new stuff will blow the horn. I did do the tender check and the button works. NOW, hooking up some newer horn boards by theselfs to the transformer works the units. So, do I need to make a bastardised a boxcar that will work a horn unit, or do I need to do something else?
I’m not sure what you should do. I never had a problem with the 5906 until I got the hogwarts. I suspect lionel has made a new relay board to run the whistle motor and for some reason it will not respond to the 5906. I use four of them on my old ZW for whistle and bell(2 on each handle)and they worked for everything up to the HWX. I guess you will have to decide how you want to use it or take it back to the store. Now if you bought it used that may be a different story.
I’ll tell you what you need to do. You need to keep a civil tongue in your head. Words pretending to be disguised with hyphens and ugly racial epithets are not what this forum is here for.
