Power your locomotive with an alternating-current (50-60Hz AC) transformer only.

Powering your locomotive with a direct-current (DC) transformer, or in excess of

19 volts AC, may result in damage to sensitive electronic components.

Your locomotive requires Lionel or Lionel-compatible O-42 or larger track curves.

1. Turn off track power, and then plug in the

LEGACY Base and connect it to the track.

2. Place your train set on the track.

3. Increase track power voltage to full power

(no more than 19 volts AC). If a circuit breaker

trips when you turn on the Lionel power supply, check

the wheels of your locomotive to make sure they are all

securely on the track. Check to make sure the track is free

of all metals that may cause a short circuit.

4. As illustrated in Figure 1, press ENG and 1

(or your selected ENG ID#) to address the

locomotive with your LEGACY CAB-2 Remote

Controller.

5. Press the Start Up button on your LEGACY

CAB-2 Remote, shown in Figure 2. Then,

throttle up and move 'em out! Your engine sound

will start up, and the locomotive-specific touch screen

buttons will populate the remote. For more information

on operating your locomotive with the LEGACY system,

please refer to the LEGACY section of this manual.

Additional information is also found in the LEGACY

System Manual, available online at www.lionel.com.

LEGACY Control operations

For the finest operating experience, your locomotive is fully compatible with the LEGACY Control

System. To operate in LEGACY mode, you need a LEGACY Command Base and LEGACY CAB-2

Remote Controller (6-14295).

Your commands are sent by the CAB-2 Remote Controller to the Command Base, which sends

a digital code through the rails to your locomotive. Your locomotive will not respond until it

recognizes its unique ID#, so you can operate multiple Command-equipped locomotives on the

same track at the same time.

Power your locomotive with an alternating-current (50-60Hz AC) transformer only.

Powering your locomotive with a direct-current (DC) transformer, or in excess of

19 volts AC, may result in damage to sensitive electronic components.

Your locomotive requires Lionel or Lionel-compatible O-42 or larger track curves.

For operation in the TrainMaster Command Control environment, you need a TrainMaster

Command Base (6-12911) and a CAB-1 Remote Controller (6-12868). Refer to your TMCC

System Manual for complete information. To access all the locomotive's features, you

must operate in the LEGACY environment, as discussed on the previous page.

Your commands are sent by the CAB-1 Remote Controller to the Command Base, which

translates the command into digital code. That code is sent through the outside rails to your

locomotive, which will not respond until it recognizes its unique ID#. TrainMaster Command

Control gives you the power to operate multiple Command-equipped locomotives on the same track

at the same time.

1. Turn off track power, and then plug in the Command Base and connect it to the

track.

2. Place your train set on the track.

3. Increase track voltage to full power (no more than 19 volts AC). If a circuit

breaker trips when you turn on the Lionel power supply, check the wheels of your locomotive to

make sure they are all securely on the track. Check to make sure the track is free of all metals

that may cause a short circuit.

4. Press ENG and 1 (or the ENG ID# you set) to address your locomotive with

your CAB-1 Remote Controller.

5. Throttle up and move ‘em out.

For more information, please refer to the TrainMaster Command Control operations section of

this manual or the TMCC System Manual, available online at www.lionel.com.

TrainMaster Command Control (TMCC) operations

Running your train set

Conventional transformer operations

For Conventional operation, a Command Base must not be powered up anywhere in

the area, even if it is not connected to the track. If a base is detected, your

locomotive will default to Command mode.

Power your locomotive with an alternating-current (50-60Hz AC) transformer only.

Powering your locomotive with a direct-current (DC) transformer, or in excess of

19 volts AC, may result in damage to sensitive electronic components.

Your locomotive requires Lionel or Lionel-compatible O-42 or larger track curves.

1. With track power off, place your train set on the track.

2. Power up the track. If a circuit breaker trips when you turn on the Lionel power supply,

check the wheels of your locomotive to make sure they are all securely on the track. Check to

make sure the track is free of all metals that may cause a short circuit.

3. Move ‘em out! When the locomotive’s headlight illuminates and the LEGACY RailSounds

sound system starts, press the DIRECTION button on your transformer to sequence your

locomotive through the repeating pattern of operations: neutral, forward, neutral, reverse,

neutral, and so on. You may also briefly turn off track power to advance the locomotive to the

next operating state. Adjust the throttle until your locomotive moves at your desired speed.

When placing your locomotive on your layout for the first time and after power

interruptions lasting longer than five seconds, it will start out in neutral.

We recommend that you operate your LEGACY locomotive with Odyssey II

Speed Control turned on. You may choose to operate your locomotive without speed control

by placing the Odyssey II Speed Control System switch to the NO ODY position. See Figure 4 on page

8 for the location of the switch.

Use the HORN and BELL buttons on your transformer to activate those features. Adjust the

volume using the volume control knob. Refer to Figure 4 on page 8 for the location of this control.

For more information, please refer to the Conventional transformer operations section of this

manual.

Note!

Locomotive basics

Your locomotive is equipped with a smoke generator that produces safe, clean, white smoke dur-

ing operation. Add 10-20 drops to either stack (shown in Figure 3) to prime the unit the first

time you run the locomotive or after being stored for an extended period of time, and then add 10

to 20 drops to refill when smoke production decreases. When refilling, DO NOT EXCEED 20 DROPS

as this can cause your smoke units to become oversaturated allowing leakage onto the electronics.

Note that operating your locomotive's smoke unit without smoke fluid will cause damage to the

heating element.

If you prefer to operate your locomotive without smoke, locate the smoke unit switch and slide it

to the NO SMK position. Refer to Figure 4 on page 8 for the location of the switch.

For best performance, we recommend using Lionel smoke fluid only. Do NOT use smoke

fluid from ready-to-run train sets.

Note! Add fluid to only one stack.

The functions of your locomotive's switches are outlined below. Refer to Figure 4 for the location

of the switches. The instructions below are specific to this particular locomo-

tive; note that available features (and switches) may differ from other loco-

motives and locomotive sets.

Smoke Unit Switch (SMK/NO SMK)

Used to turn the smoke unit function on and off.

Program-Run Switch (RUN/PGM)

Used to assign an ID# and to reprogram the locomotive for LEGACY and Command operation

when the switch is in the PGM position. Also used to “lock” your powered locomotive in a single

direction, or neutral, in conventional operation when the switch is placed in the PGM position.

Odyssey II Speed Control System Switch (ODY/NO ODY)

Used to turn the Odyssey II Speed Control System on and off.

Installing the battery

Although the LEGACY RailSounds sound system is powered through the track, you may choose

to install a nine-volt alkaline battery if you find that the sound system shuts down during

track power interruptions (for example, at a switch or over a dirty section of track). See Figure 5

below and follow these steps to install the battery.

If the RailSounds sound system turns off during interruptions in track power, you may

need to replace the battery. Use only alkaline batteries.

1. Lift up and remove the radiator hatch from the rear of the locomotive.

2. Remove the protective cover from the battery harness.

3. Snap the battery harness onto the nine-volt alkaline battery’s terminals.

4. Slide the battery into the battery holder.

5. Replace the hatch on the locomotive's roof.

For operation in the LEGACY or TMCC environment, you will want to give each unit a unique

ID#. The locomotive will respond to commands associated with its ID# while all other units will

disregard these commands. This procedure is not necessary for conventional (non-

Command) operation.

1. Slide the Command reverse unit switch on your locomotive to the PGM

position. See Figure 4 on page 8.

2. Place the locomotive on the track.

3. Connect the Command Base and plug it in.

4. Power up the track.

5. Press ENG on the CAB-1 or CAB-2 remote.

6. Enter the unique ID#. Choose any number from 1 to 98 that has not been

assigned to another locomotive (ENG). We recommend using a part of your

locomotive’s road number.

All LEGACY locomotives respond to ENG 99. We recommend that you reserve ID# 99 as a

"universal" ID#.

7. Press SET. The locomotive's horn will sound, or the headlights will flash if the

RailSounds sound system is off.

8. Slide the Command reverse unit switch back to the RUN position.

The locomotive’s ID# has been set. Be sure to record the new ID# for your reference.
