Hello,
I bought a vintage "Heritage Village Collection" HO-scale train. The old tracks were falling apart, and I wanted to use them in my Christmas village. I tested the train on the old track, and it all worked, but the tracks were just very loose. I ordered and installed a new EZ track setup and hooked the power to the new setup using the power box and wires that came with the original. The track does not seem to be getting power now, and the train doesn't work. Do I need to buy a new power box for the train? Seems like the tracks are the same and that this wouldn't be an issue, but I can't get it to work.
