    hmmm. Well, more a suggestion, but you could try google ing AC and DC trains.
    I own a Murphy Models 071 and it has different configurations for DC and AC, in the form of switches on the base of it:

    The light in the driver cab will only work when the loco is on a DC track: this was explained in the documentation, pretty decent enough, that came in the Murphy Model box.

    So, without further ado if I were you, RTFM that came in the Murphy Model 141 box, then try Google, and if all else fails, then look for a repair shop.
