I don't know when my waffle is done

Directions

1. Preheat waffle iron. Beat eggs in large bowl with hand beater until fluffy. Beat in flour, milk, vegetable oil, sugar, baking powder, salt and vanilla, just until smooth.
2. Spray preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray. Pour mix onto hot waffle iron. Waffle is usually done when it stops steaming. Cook until golden brown.

IfIam correct, the basic Polar Express came with just a whistle. There is an optional coal tender that has a better sound system in it...Whistle bell and steam sound also try reversing the power wires at the transformer or track

The model # is stamped on the bottom side of the unit, or on bottom where the cord plugs into it. Once you have the model #, you can find a good used replacement cord on eBay.

Try letting it warm up for at least ten minutes. Then add waffle batter and leave closed for about five minutes and check the waffle. If it is way over done try three minutes other wise adjust your time in thirty second increments. You should have great waffles in three or less tries.

Good Luck,

It beeps 3 times when each waffle is done.

Usually there is steam rising from the waffle maker when cooking, if there is no light on it to tell you when it is done watch the seam and as it is getting done there will be less steam than when it first started, if there is a light watch when it goes off or when the steam stops and then count minutes to when you open it to see how browned toasted you prefer

Thoroughly clean with warm soapy water, that is the surfaces where the waffle will sit then thoroughly dry plug it in have your mix remade when it starts heating up pour some batter on as a tester in the center of the lower grill close the lid and watch the steam when the steam starts to slow down your waffle is cooked depending on how done you like them you either take it out as the steam is slowing down or when there is very little steam, there is a lot of trial and error with a waffle maker and after using it a couple of times you will get the hang of it and know precisely or know closer to how long you like it to cook. Good luck and let me know how it works out.

When making a waffle have your batter made plug in your maker and get it started heating if there is a light it will go off whenit is hot enough if not wait aprox 2-3 minutes at the most 5 then spay or brush the inside of the plates with a nonstick cooking spray or brush with butter then pour your batter in the center of the bottom plate and close the lid it should start steaming right away watch the steam it is a never fail indicater of how done your waffle is the less steam the more done your waffle is, there is a lot of trial and error with waffle makers, you should spay or brush between each waffle or they will stick. Let me know how it all cooks out. goofballlovers
