3Move ‘em out!

Get your locomotive moving. Press the DIRECTION button on your 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.

Place your locomotive on Lionel or Lionel-compatible

O-31 or larger 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 the RailSounds sound system 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.)

Caution!

Note!

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 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 Track section (available

separately, 6-65530 for O gauge; 6-65149 or

6-12746 for O-27 gauge; and 6-12020 for

FasTrack layouts). Place your rolling stock’s

coupler “trigger disc” over the central coil

of a Remote-Control Track section and press

UNCOUPLE on the controller. As illustrated

in Figure 2, the magnetic field pulls the disc

downward, and the coupler opens.

See page 11 to learn how to release the

ElectroCouplers in the Command Control

environment.

Your locomotive’s ElectroCouplers will NOT open manually or by using a

Remote-Control Track section.

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

Command reverse unit switch.

Get your locomotive moving in

the desired direction, then slow it

down without stopping. Set the

Command reverse unit switch to

PRG. 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.

Your locomotive’s RailSounds sound 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 the

RailSounds sound system. As illustrated in

Figure 3, the battery holder is located inside

the cab. To access the battery, squeeze in the

side windows and lift off the roof. Attach the

battery to the battery harness, then slide the

battery into the holder. Replace the roof, and

the battery installation is complete.

When you first apply track power, the

locomotive’s RailSounds sound system

produces sounds of the locomotive at rest. As

the locomotive moves, the RPMs increase

with the locomotive’s speed.

To silence the diesel roar (the horn and bell

remain unaffected), slide the RailSounds

sound system 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 harness.

Although the RailSounds sound system 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

sound system switch position.

If the RailSounds sound system “drops out” during track power interruptions

(for example, during a direction change), replace the battery.

With the RailSounds sound system, 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. If you prefer, you

may set the level to idle, half throttle,

three quarters, or full-speed output.

• MultiHorn. A different horn sound at

different speeds—a RailSounds sound

system 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 its Lionel Command reverse unit has

just reset to forward operation.

• Shutdown sequence. No other model

railroad sound system shuts down like

the RailSounds sound system. 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, the RailSounds sound

system will commence with a realistic

diesel shutdown sequence about two

seconds after the air-release reset occurs.

(Battery installation required.)

system

RailSounds sound system operations

Notes on the RailSounds sound system

• Turn the volume knob clockwise or counter-

clockwise to adjust sound output. As

illustrated in Figure 4, it is located behind

the door in the front of the locomotive.

• Listen for incidental locomotive sounds

during the RailSounds sound system

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 the

RailSounds sound system to shut down after

about seven seconds.

• For even more authentic RailSounds sound

system effects, operate in the TrainMaster

Command Control environment. See pages

11-14 for more information.

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.

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 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

locomotive will respond to each signal from

the Command Base. For example, address

the locomotive and slowly turn the throttle.

The first flash of the red light on the

Command Base corresponds to the first

speed step. This is the slowest speed of the

locomotive.

Odyssey System Command operation

Caution!

Note!

TrainMaster Command operations

The Command Control environment

TrainMaster Command Control is the

advanced model railroad control system

from Lionel. TrainMaster Command Control

gives you the power to operate multiple

Command-equipped locomotives on the

same track, at the same time.

To operate in Command mode, you

need a Command Base (6-12868) and

a CAB-1 Remote Controller (6-12911).

Find them both at your authorized Lionel

retailer.

Place your locomotive on Lionel or

Lionel-compatible O-31 or larger track.

2Address 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 around

your railroad’s outside rails in the form of a digital “halo.” All Command-

equipped Lionel locomotives listen to this digital communication, but they do

not respond until they hear their individual ID number—in this case, “1.”

• The digital language of TrainMaster Command Control—and not

track power—controls the actions of Command-equipped Lionel

engines. Track power is simply like gasoline in the tank of your car—it gives

you the power to go places, but it doesn’t tell you where to go or how fast to get

there.

• All Command locomotives come factory-programmed with an ID#

of “1.” To change the ID# of your locomotive, see page 14.

3Move ‘em out!

• Throttle up or press any command button on the CAB-1 Remote

Controller. Your locomotive will respond to your every command.

• 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 Lionel

transformer or the U terminal on any of your installed PowerMasters.

• Once positioned on the track, increase track voltage to FULL (no more

than 19 volts). On PowerMasters, slide the CMD/CONV switch to CMD.
