33Move ‘em out!

Get your locomotive moving. Press the DIRECTION button on your Lioneltransformer. This sequences the Command reverse unit to the next operating state.

Adjust track voltage until your locomotive moves at your desired speed. Toincrease speed, increase track voltage. To decrease speed, reduce voltage. To stop thelocomotive, turn-off track power.

Place your locomotive on Lionel or Lionel-compatible O-31 or larger track.

22Power up your locomotive with your transformer.

Your locomotive is designed to operate on 8-18 volts alternatingcurrent. 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 waitbetween three and eight seconds as it “listens” for digital language from theTrainMaster Command Base (available separately). When it has determined that it’son a conventional (non-Command) railroad, the locomotive’s headlight willilluminate 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.)

Running your locomotive with a Lionel transformer

Transformer operations

Caution!

Note!

To select a single operational statefor your Lionel locomotive (for

example, forward only), you candeactivate the Command reverse unit’ssequencing function with theCommand reverse unit switch.

Get your locomotive moving inthe desired direction, then slow itdown without stopping. Set theCommand reverse unit switch toPGM. Refer to Figure 1 for thelocation of the switch. Thelocomotive is now “locked” intoyour chosen direction.

When you no longer want single-directionoperation, just slide the Command reverseunit switch back to RUN.

Your locomotive’s reverse unitwill “reset” to forward after anypower interruption lasting fiveseconds or longer, regardless ofthe original locked-out direction.

Using your locomotive’s ElectroCouplers in the non-Commandenvironment

To uncouple rolling stock from yourlocomotive’s ElectroCouplers in the non-

Command environment, you must rely on apiece of rolling stock equipped with Lionel

magnetic couplers coupled directly to yourlocomotive’s ElectroCouplers. The magneticcoupler on the rolling stock will then reactto the magnetic field generated by a LionelRemote-Control Track section (availableseparately, 6-65530 for O gauge; 6-65149 or6-12746 for O-27 gauge; and 6-12020 forFasTrack layouts). Place your rolling stock’scoupler “trigger disc” over the central coilof a Remote-Control Track section and pressUNCOUPLE on the controller. As illustratedin Figure 2, the magnetic field pulls the discdownward, and the coupler opens.

See page 11 to learn how to release thecouplers in the Command Controlenvironment.

Your locomotive’s ElectroCouplers will NOT open manually or by using aRemote-Control Track section.

Your locomotive’s RailSounds sound system—the basics

Please remove the protective cover from the battery harness.

Although the RailSounds sound system is powered by track voltage, the batteryis required for uninterrupted operation and shutdown sequences. Use onlyalkaline batteries.

Discontinue locomotive power for ten seconds before changing the RailSoundssound system switch position.

If the RailSounds sound system “drops out” during track power interruptions(for example, during a direction change), replace the battery.

RailSounds sound system operations

7

The Lionel RailSounds sound system isthe most realistic model railroad sound

system in the world. Your locomotivefeatures digital samples from real-life diesellocomotives for the ultimate in realism.

You may choose to install a nine-voltalkaline battery in your locomotive. Thisensures interruption-free operation of theRailSounds sound system. The batteryharness is located inside the body. Carefullyunsnap the radiator hatch to access thebattery harness. As illustrated in Figure 3,snap the battery harness onto the battery,

then slide the battery into the holder andreplace the radiator hatch.

When you first apply track power, thelocomotive’s sound system produces soundsof the locomotive at rest. As the locomotivemoves, the RPMs increase with thelocomotive’s speed.

To silence the diesel roar (the horn and bellremain unaffected), slide the RailSoundssound system switch on the underside of thelocomotive to NO SND (refer to Figure 1 onpage 5) before powering up the locomotive.

RailSounds sound system operations

W ith the RailSounds sound system, youexperience the sounds of real

railroading like never before. Simply put,it’s the most sophisticated, authentic modelrailroad sound system in the world.

• Four diesel-roar levels. Your locomotive’s speed determines the levelof diesel RPM roar. If you prefer, youmay set the level to idle, half throttle,three quarters, or full-speed output.

• MultiHorn. A different horn sound atdifferent speeds—a RailSounds soundsystem exclusive.

• Mechanical bell. Press BELL on yourCAB-1 Remote Control or transformer tobegin the effect, again to discontinue.

• Reverse unit reset sound. Powerdown your track, wait for three to fiveseconds, and listen for the air-releasesound—that’s the locomotive telling youthat its Lionel Command reverse unit hasjust reset to forward operation.

• Shutdown sequence. No other modelrailroad sound system shuts down likethe RailSounds sound system. Turn offtrack power, and after the air-releasereset sound, you have two seconds torestart your locomotive. If you’re donewith operations, the RailSounds soundsystem will commence with a realisticdiesel shutdown sequence about twoseconds after the air-release reset occurs.(Battery installation required.)

Experiencing the range of your locomotive’s RailSounds system

Notes on the RailSounds sound system

• Turn the volume knob clockwise orcounter-clockwise in the location shownin Figure 3 on page 7 to adjust soundoutput.

• Listen for incidental locomotive soundsduring RailSounds sound systemoperation. They’re automatic and, ofcourse, authentic.

• The nine-volt alkaline battery youinstalled ensures continuous locomotive

diesel sounds.• Longer track-power interruptions

(including locomotive derailments)cause the RailSounds sound system toshut down after about seven seconds.

• For even more authentic RailSoundssound system effects, operate in theTrainMaster Command Controlenvironment. See page 10-13 for moreinformation.

Setting Speed Control1. 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.

The speed of the locomotive will increase slightly before returning to the set speed.

Turning Off Speed Control:1. While the engine is in neutral, turn your controller up to the maximum power (no

more than 19 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 totrack power. Do not exceed 14-16 volts for extended periods. Doing so will causedamage 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 aconstant speed, no matter what loads the

locomotive pulls or what grades you have onyour layout. This digitally-controlled systemalso allows for extremely slow movementthat will amaze any “scale” enthusiast.

While in the Command Controlenvironment, the speed control

feature of the Odyssey System is always on.When turning the throttle, the speed of thelocomotive will respond to each signal fromthe Command Base. For example, Address

the locomotive and slowly turn the throttle.The first flash of the red light on theCommand Base corresponds to the firstspeed step. This is the slowest speed of thelocomotive.

TrainMaster Command operationsThe Command Control environment

TrainMaster Command Control is theadvanced model railroad control system

from Lionel. TrainMaster Command Controlgives you the power to operate multipleCommand-equipped locomotives on thesame track, at the same time.

To operate in Command mode, youneed a Command Base (6-12868) anda CAB-1 Remote Controller (6-12911).Find them both at your authorized Lionelretailer.

Place your locomotive on Lionel or Lionel-compatible O-31 or larger track.

22Address your locomotive using your CAB-1 Remote Controller.• Press ENG and 1 on the numeric keypad of your CAB-1 Remote Controller.

This command is sent by your CAB-1 Remote Controller to the Command Base,which then translates your command into digital code. That code is sent aroundyour railroad’s outside rails in the form of a digital “halo.” All Command-equipped Lionel locomotives listen to this digital communication, but they donot respond until they hear their individual ID number—in this case, “1.”

• The digital language of TrainMaster Command Control—and nottrack power—controls the actions of Command-equipped Lionelengines. Track power is simply like gasoline in the tank of your car—it givesyou the power to go places, but it doesn’t tell you where to go or how fast to getthere.

• All Command locomotives come factory-programmed with an ID#of “1.” To change the ID# of your locomotive, see page 14.

33Move ‘em out!

• Throttle up or press any command button on the CAB-1 RemoteController. Your locomotive will respond to your every command.

11• Make sure track power is OFF before placing on the track.• Make sure your Lionel Command Base is plugged-in and its

communications wire is connected to the COMMON post on your Lioneltransformer or the U terminal on any of your installed PowerMasters.

• Once positioned on the track, increase track voltage to FULL (no morethan 19 volts). On PowerMasters, slide the CMD/CONV switch to CMD.

Tuning your locomotive’s performance

MOMENTUMTrainMaster Command’s momentum

feature simulates the labored performanceof a locomotive pulling a heavy load. PressL, M, or H (located under your CAB-1Remote Controller’s removable panel) forlight, medium, or heavy momentum. Thelocomotive’s Command reverse unitremembers this setting until you change it.For quick locomotive response, choose L.

BRAKING AND BOOSTINGThere’s more to starting and stopping

than just turning the CAB-1 RemoteController’s throttle. Use the BOOST andBRAKE command buttons—they give youincremental control of speed and are thesuperior way to handle grades, gradualstops-and-starts, and more. Plus, usingBRAKE in the Command environment givesyou a bonus RailSounds sound systemeffect—the ultra-realistic sound ofsquealing brakes.

SOUND QUALITYTo achieve your preferred RailSounds

sound system master volume level, werecommend that you adjust your locomotivevolume control knob (see Figure 5 on page18 for the location). Turn the knob left or

right to reach the desired volume level.For quick remote-control of volume below

the master setting—for example, muting—use the CAB-1 Remote Controller numerickeypad’s volume control. Press AUX1 andthen 4 on the numeric keypad to lower theoverall RailSounds sound system output.

HIGH VOLTAGE SETTINGPress SET, and the headlight will flash.

Get your locomotive moving to themaximum speed you want it to run, thenpress BOOST. Use this to keep yourlocomotive from derailing at excessivespeeds. Turn off the high voltage setting bypressing SET, then BOOST, holding eachfor one second.

STALLMake your locomotive feel more

responsive by setting a “stall” voltage. Getyour locomotive moving, then press SET;the locomotive will stop. Turn the throttleclockwise to get the locomotive moving,then decrease speed until the locomotivejust stops. Press SET again; the Commandreverse unit remembers the stall settinguntil you change it. To clear the stallsetting, press SET twice, holding it for onesecond each time.

These settings will be lost when you assign a new engine ID number.Note!


14


We recommend that you choose an easy toremember ID# for your engine. Some possi-bilities are part of the engine road number,your age, or any two digit number that is notused by another engine. Write the number ona small piece of tape and put this on thebottom of the fuel tank to aid inremembering.

As your fleet of Command-equippedLionel locomotives grows, you’ll want

to give your locomotive a moreindividualized number. Choose from anybetween 1 and 99. To make things easy, usea portion of your locomotive’s cab number.

Set the locomotive’s Command reverseunit switch to PRG (see Figure 1 on page 5). Plug in the Command Base andplace the locomotive on track, then powerup. Using your CAB-1 Remote Controller,press ENG, the locomotive ID# that youselect and then press the SET button locatedunder your CAB-1 Remote Controller’sremovable panel. Hear the horn blow (or seethe headlight flash if the RailSounds soundsystem is off); that’s the Command reverseunit confirming the new ID#. Set theCommand reverse unit switch to RUN. Yourlocomotive is ready for operations with itsall-new ID#.

TrainMaster Command operationsReprogramming the Command reverse unit to restore features

Due to the inevitable derailments andstatic, it is possible that your Command

reverse unit could someday lose its setupprogram. The symptom of this conditionwould be unresponsiveness in Commandmode. This can be easily remedied by“reprogramming” your Command reverseunit using the following steps.

STEP 1: Move the switch on yourlocomotive from RUN to PGM.

STEP 2: Plug in your Command Base.

STEP 3: Place the locomotive on track,then turn on power to your track.

STEP 4: Press ENG then input thelocomotive’s ID#. Press SET.

STEP 5: Press ENG, the ID#, AUX1, thenpress 8 for this particular locomotive.

STEP 6: Turn off power to your track andwait ten seconds.

STEP 7: Remove the locomotive from yourtrack, and move the switch from PGM toRUN.

STEP 8: Place the locomotive back ontrack, then turn power on to the track.

STEP 9: Press ENG and the ID#, thenoperate as normal.


16

TrainMaster Command Control allows you to couple your Command Control equippedlocomotives together, forming a multiple unit lash-up. Just like with the real railroads,

lash-ups allow you to pull longer trains and climb up steeper grades. You will find that thelighting operates prototypically—the lead unit's headlight and interior lights are illuminatedwhen the train is in forward, and the rear unit's headlight and interior lights are illuminatedwhen the train is in reverse. For more information, refer to your TrainMaster CommandControl Manual.

To build a lash-up, assign a unique engine (ENG) ID# to each unit. Arrange the units onthe track and couple them together. The Command reverse unit switches must be set toRUN/FORWARD.

If you press a wrong button, start over with that particular unit; the assignment isn’tsaved until you press SET on the CAB-1 Remote Controller.

Start with the lead unit.

1. On your CAB-1 Remote Controller, press TR, then enter your lash-up ID# (1-9).

No other track or lash-up should be assigned that ID#.

2. Enter the lead unit’s unique ID#.

3. Press F.

4. Press SET beneath the front panel on the CAB-1 Remote Controller.

Add the middle units, one at a time


2. Enter the unique ID# of one of the middle units.


4. Repeat these steps for any other unit.

Complete the lash-up by adding the rear unit.


2. Enter the last unit’s unique ID#, then press R.

3. Press the DIRECTION button if the unit is facing backward.


If any locomotive in the lash-up faces backwards, press DIR before SET.

You are now ready to operate your locomotives as a lash-up. Simply press TR and enter thelash-up ID#, then use the CAB-1 Remote Controller to operate your locomotives. To operate anindividual unit within the lash-up, simply press ENG and enter the ID# for that unit.

Maintaining and servicing your locomotiveAdding fluid to your locomotive’s smoke generator

Your locomotive is equipped with asmoke generator that produces safe,

clean, white smoke during operation. The smoke generator requires the

periodic addition of Lionel smoke fluid inorder to function. Pierce the tube end with apin. Then add 10-15 drops of fluid into thelocomotive’s duct. Refer to Figure 4. Smokeproduction will commence momentarily,faster if you run your locomotive at speed.When smoke production decreases, addmore fluid (four to eight drops).

If you prefer to operate the locomotive

without smoke, locate the switch on thebottom of the engine under the cab markedSMK/NO SMK (see Figure 1 on page 5 for thelocation). Move the switch to NO SMK andyour locomotive will stop smoking.

When the smoke unit is on, always keepa small amount of smoke fluid in the loco-motive’s smoke generator; the generator’selement can become damaged if operatedwithout fluid. Smoke production is greaterat higher voltages and when the locomotiveis pulling a heavy load or long consist.

Never operate the smoke unit when dry. This will cause the smoke unit to overheatand may damage your engine.

Caution!

Maintaining and servicing your locomotiveLubricating your locomotive

Help your Lionel locomotive lead a longand productive life on your railroad by

maintaining it properly. We recommend that you purchase a Lionel

Lubrication and Maintenance Kit (6-62927),available from your Lionel dealer. Two basicrules to keep in mind: never over-lubricate (asmall amount will do), and avoid getting

grease or oil on the locomotive’s wheels oryour track. You’ll know your locomotiverequires lubrication when visual inspectionreveals dryness on the parts indicated inFigure 5. Remove accumulated dirt and dustbefore lubricating, and always lubricate anylocomotive emerging from prolonged storage.

Maintaining and servicing your locomotiveReplacing your locomotive’s LEDs

Your locomotive is illuminated by two LEDcircuit boards. During the course of

normal operations, they may requirereplacement.

We recommend that you have the LEDreplacement done at an authorized LionelService Center. See the Lionel Service sectionon page 20 for more information.

Replacing the traction tires

Your locomotive is equipped with fourtraction tires. These rubber tires

increase the tractive effort of yourlocomotive, allowing it to pull more cars atonce. During the course of normaloperations, the traction tires may become

worn out. Because you must remove thetrucks and the side frames to access thewheels, we recommend that you have thetraction tires replaced by your authorizedLionel Service Center. See the Lionel Servicesection on page 20 for more information.
