After going through my post war set that had been stored in my garage for almost 40 years, I decided to purchase a new locomotive; Lionel ET44C4! Then I had to purchase a new transformer… Hooking up the three separate units (pm/ph/base3) and then getting cab3 on my iPhone was easy, but in the 12 hours since doing that I’ve achieved nothing. I’ve watched a multitude of YT videos, but nothing is getting me any closer. I have the PH plugged into my PM, with the base 3 track wire hooked to the U post of the PM. A fastrack terminal section is also hooked to the PM A/U. And then I bring up the cab3 app and connect to the access point Lionel Base 3. After this nothing works. I can’t get anything to appear in the app, and it seems there is no power to the track. Any out there have any ideas on my next step? I would greatly appreciate it.

This train (set?) went undefeated against my brother’s 1952 steam engine set in 100’s of games of chicken on 25’ of straight track (40+ years ago). I’m surprised there is hardly any damage to it. My question is if this is a train set from 1958, or if it’s multiple pieces. Have tried internet searches, but not figuring it out. Thanks!
