3Move ‘em out!

Get your locomotive moving. Press the DIRECTION button on your CAB-1

Remote Controller or Lionel transformer. This sequences the Command reverse unit

to the next operating state.

Adjust track voltage until your locomotive moves at your desired speed. To

increase speed, increase track voltage. To decrease speed, reduce voltage. To stop the

locomotive, turn-off track power.

See page 5 for information on locking your locomotive into a single

operational state.

Place your locomotive on Lionel or Lionel-compatible

O gauge track.

2Power up your locomotive with your transformer.

Your locomotive is designed to operate on 8-18 volts alternating

current. Virtually all Lionel and Lionel-compatible alternating-current

transformers are suitable.

Do not power your locomotive with direct current (DC). Damage to

sensitive electronic components may occur.

When you first power up your track, the locomotive will wait

between three and eight seconds as it “listens” for digital language from the

TrainMaster Command Base (available separately). When it has determined that it’s

on a conventional (non-Command) railroad, the locomotive’s headlight will

illuminate and RailSounds will fire up. At this point, the locomotive is in neutral.

(This occurs when placing the locomotive on your railroad for the first time.

Thereafter, it will start in forward following every five-second power interruption.)

Transformer operations

Caution!

Note!

To select a single operational state for

your Lionel locomotive (for example,

forward only), you can deactivate the

Command reverse unit’s sequencing

function with the reverse unit switch.

Get your locomotive moving in the

desired direction, then slow it down

without stopping. Set the Command reverse

unit switch to PGM. Refer to Figure 1 for the

location of the switch. The locomotive is

now “locked” into your chosen direction.

When you no longer want single-direction

operation, just slide the Command reverse

unit switch back to RUN.

Your locomotive’s reverse unit will

“reset” to forward after any power

interruption lasting five seconds

or longer, regardless of the

original locked-out direction.

Transformer operations

Using your locomotive’s ElectroCouplers in the

non-Command environment

To uncouple rolling stock from your

locomotive’s ElectroCouplers in the

non-Command environment, you must rely

on a piece of rolling stock equipped with

Lionel magnetic couplers that can be

coupled directly to your locomotive’s

ElectroCouplers. The magnetic coupler on

the rolling stock will then react to the

magnetic field generated by a Lionel

Remote-Control or Uncoupling Track

section (available separately, 6-65530

for O gauge, 6-65149 or 6-12746 for

O-27 gauge). Place your rolling stock’s

coupler “trigger disc” over the central coil

of a Remote-Control or Uncoupling Track

section and press UNCOUPLE on the

controller. As illustrated in Figure 2, the

magnetic field pulls the disc downward, and

the coupler opens.

Your locomotive’s

ElectroCouplers will NOT open

manually or by using a

Remote-Control Track section.

Note!

To activate the bell and whistle sounds

when operating your locomotive with

conventional transformers, you may need to

install Lionel no. 610-5906-001 Sound

Activation Buttons (available separately) if

your transformer is not equipped to activate

these features. Connect the button(s) as

shown below.

All track power must feed through

the Sound Activation Buttons. Do

not bypass the buttons.

Your locomotive’s RailSounds system—the basics

The Lionel RailSounds sound system is

the most realistic model railroad sound

system in the world. Your locomotive

features digital samples from real-life diesel

locomotives for the ultimate in realism.

You may choose to install a nine-volt

alkaline battery in your locomotive. This

ensures interruption-free operation of

RailSounds. As illustrated in Figure 3, the

battery clip is located under the body

towards the front of the locomotive. Remove

the six body screws and lift away the body.

Refer to Figure 5 on page 17. Attach the

battery harness and slide the battery into the

holder. Reassemble in reverse order.

When you first apply track power, the

locomotive’s RailSounds sound system

produces sounds of the locomotive at rest. As

the locomotive moves, the RPM’s increase

with the locomotive’s speed.

To silence the diesel roar (the horn and bell

remain unaffected), slide the RailSounds

switch on the underside of the locomotive to

NO SND (refer to Figure 1 on page 5) before

powering up the locomotive.

Please remove the protective cover from the battery clip.

Although RailSounds is powered by track voltage, the battery is required for

uninterrupted operation and shutdown sequences. Use only alkaline batteries.

Discontinue locomotive power for ten seconds before changing the RailSounds

SND/NO SND switch position.

If RailSounds “drops out” during track power interruptions (for example,

during a direction change), replace the battery.

RailSounds operations

Figure 3. Battery installation

RailSounds operations

With RailSounds, you experience the

sounds of real railroading like never

before. Simply put, it’s the most

sophisticated, authentic model railroad

sound system in the world.

• Four diesel-roar levels. Your

locomotive’s speed determines the level

of diesel RPM roar—automatically, if

you prefer: idle, half throttle, three

quarters or full-speed output.

• MultiHorn. A different horn sound at

different speeds—a RailSounds

exclusive.

•Mechanical bell. Press BELL on your

CAB-1 Remote Controller or transformer

to begin the effect, again to discontinue.

• Reverse unit reset sound. Power

down your track, wait for three to five

seconds, and listen for the air-release

sound—that’s the locomotive telling

you that the Lionel Command reverse

unit has just reset to forward

operation.

• Shutdown sequence. No other model

railroad sound system shuts down like

RailSounds. Turn off track power, and

after the air-release reset sound, you have

two seconds to restart your locomotive. If

you’re done with operations, RailSounds

will commence with a realistic diesel

shutdown sequence about two seconds

after the air-release reset occurs. (Battery

installation required.)

Experiencing the range of your locomotive’s RailSounds system

Notes on RailSounds

• Turn the volume knob clockwise or

counter-clockwise in the location shown

in Figure 5 on page 17 to adjust sound

output.

• Listen for incidental locomotive sounds

during RailSounds operation. They’re

automatic and, of course, authentic.

• The nine-volt alkaline battery you

installed ensures continuous diesel

locomotive sounds.

• Longer track-power interruptions

(including locomotive derailments)

cause RailSounds to shut down after

about seven seconds.

• For even more authentic RailSounds

effects, operate in the TrainMaster

Command environment.

Setting Speed Control

1. Run the engine at the desired speed for approximately five seconds.

2. Press and hold the HORN button.

3. While holding the HORN button, increase the track voltage by at least three volts (at

least a quarter turn).

4. At this point, speed control is set.

Engine speed will increase slightly before returning to the set speeds.

Turning Off Speed Control:

1. While the engine is in neutral, turn your controller up to the maximum power (no

more than 20 volts), wait one second, then press and hold the HORN button.

2. While holding the HORN button, slowly reduce track voltage to one-fourth of full power.

3. Release the HORN button.

4. Cycle the engine to forward or reverse. The engine is now out of speed control mode.

In conventional operation, the smoke unit and lights are connected directly to

track power. Do not exceed 14-16 volts for extended periods. Doing so will cause

damage to the locomotive.

Odyssey System operations

Odyssey System conventional (transformer) operation

The Odyssey System

The Odyssey System is a “cruise control”

for your engine. Once the speed is set

(see below), your engine will maintain a

constant speed, no matter what loads the

locomotive pulls or what grades you have on

your layout. This digitally-controlled system

also allows for extremely slow movement

that will amaze any “scale” enthusiast.

While in the Command Control

environment, the speed control

feature of the Odyssey System is always on.

When turning the throttle, the speed of the

engine will respond to each signal from the

Command Base. Example: Address the

engine and slowly turn the throttle. The first

flash corresponds to the first speed step. This

is the slowest speed of the locomotive.
