3Move ‘em out!

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

remote or Lionel transformer. This sequences the Command reverse unit to the

next operating state.

•When your locomotive begins to move, the Mars light will illuminate and

the red hazard light will turn off on the front of your locomotive. The Mars light

is on only when the locomotive is in motion. The hazard light is on only when

the locomotive is in neutral.

•Adjust track voltage until the Veranda 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 Veranda in a single

operational state.

Place your Veranda locomotive on Lionel or Lionel-

compatible O gauge track with a diameter of 72” or larger.

2Power up your Veranda with your transformer.

•The red hazard light will illuminate at the front of your

locomotive. The locomotive is in neutral.

•Your Veranda 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 Veranda with direct current (DC). Damage to

sensitive electronic components may occur.

When you first power up your track, the Veranda will wait between

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

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

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

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

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

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

Transformer operations

Caution!

Note!

•If you are operating your locomotive with the auxiliary tender,

place the tender on the track behind the locomotive with the back-up light at the

rear.

To select a single operational state for

your Lionel Veranda (example: forward

only), you can deactivate the Command

reverse unit’s sequencing function with the

Command reverse unit switch.

Get your locomotive moving in your

desired direction, then slow it down

without stopping. Set the Command reverse

unit switch to PROG. Refer to Figure 1 for

the location of the switch. The Veranda 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 five

second or longer power

interruption, regardless of the

original locked-out direction.

Using your Veranda’s ElectroCouplers in the

non-Command environment

To uncouple rolling stock from your

ElectroCouplers on the Veranda or the

tender in the non-Command environment,

you must rely on a piece of rolling stock

equipped with Lionel magnetic couplers

coupled directly to your ElectroCouplers. The

magnetic coupler on the rolling stock will

then react to the magnetic field generated by

a Lionel Remote-Control 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 Track

section and press UNCOUPLE on the

controller. The magnetic field pulls the disc

downward, and the coupler opens.

The ElectroCouplers will NOT open manually or by using a

Remote-Control Track section.

Note!

To operate the bell and horn sounds when

operating your locomotive with

conventional transformers, you’ll need to

install a Lionel no. 610-5906-001 Sound

Activation Button (available separately).

Connect the button(s) as shown below.

All track power must feed through

the Sound Activation Button. Do

not bypass the button.

Setting Speed Control

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

switch is in the ON position. See page 5 for the switch locations.

2. Press and hold the horn button.

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

1/4 turn).

4. At this point, speed control is set.

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

Turning off Speed Control using your transformer:

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. The

marker lights will turn off. Keep reducing the throttle and the marker light will turn on.

3. Release the horn button.

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

In conventional operation, the lights in both the engine and tender are

connected directly to track power. Do not exceed 14-16 volts for extended

periods. Doing so will reduce the life of your lamps.

If you experience problems with speed control, turn off track power, place the

locomotive on the track with the Odyssey switch OFF, and throttle up. This will clear

the speed settings. You must slide the switch back to the ON position to set another

speed setting.

Odyssey System operations

Odyssey System conventional (transformer) operation

The Odyssey System

The Odyssey System is a “cruise control”

for your engine. This digitally-

controlled system allows for extremely slow

movement that will amaze any “scale”

enthusiast. Because your Veranda’s wheels

roll freely, you may notice an increase in

speed as the locomotive travels down the

grade, depending on the load and the

steepness of the grade. You may also notice

a slight reduction in speed as the locomotive

ascends the grade.

Caution!

Note!

Odyssey System operations

Use your CAB-1 remote to turn the

Odyssey System speed control on or off.

The marker lights will flash twice after each

sequence has been entered. The Odyssey

switch position (see page 5) is the

Odyssey system default setting when

you power up the locomotive. You

may override the default with the following

commands. The override settings will be

cleared and the default settings will be

restored when the locomotive is powered

down.

Do not wait longer than two-three seconds between pushing the buttons in each sequence. If

the command is not accepted, repeat the sequence.

The locomotive must be in “neutral” while enabling or disabling the Odyssey

System speed control.

Note!

Your Veranda’s RailSounds system—the basics

Lionel RailSounds is the most realistic

model railroad sound system in the

world. Your Veranda features diesels sounds

at low speeds and turbine sounds as the

speed increases.

As illustrated in Figure 3, you may choose

to install a 9-volt alkaline battery in your

Veranda. This ensures interruption-free

operation of RailSounds. Remove the six

body screws illustrated in Figure 5 on

page 19. The battery clip is located inside

the body toward the rear of the locomotive.

Attach the battery harness, slide the battery

into the holder, and replace the body.

When you first apply track power, the

Veranda’s RailSounds system produces

sounds of the locomotive at rest. As the

Veranda moves, the RPM’s increase with the

locomotive’s speed.

To silence the sounds (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 10 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.
