Joining the FasTrack track sections

FasTrack track sections join together easily. With interlocking roadbed sections and large

rail tabs, the track fits together securely so you always get good electrical contact. Take a

look at Figure 2 to see how to join the track sections.

1. Line up your two sections of track.

2. Insert the rail tabs into the openings at the ends of the corresponding

rails.

3. Press the sections together until the interlocking roadbed snaps into

place.

Figure 2. Joining the track sections

Building your Lionel layout

Your set comes with eight curved, three straight, and one terminal section of track. Figure 1

provides some examples of layouts that you can build with these track sections.

By adding more FasTrack track sections, you can create an endless number of exciting

track arrangements for more fun, action, and variety. The railroad empire of your dreams can

quickly become a reality!

Operating your CW-80 Transformer safely

Your Lionel CW-80 Transformer is listed by Underwriter’s Laboratory Inc. and has been

carefully designed to ensure peak performance. When using electrical products, basic

safety precautions should be maintained.

Be sure to observe the following guidelines:

•Read the manual thoroughly before using this device.

•This device is not recommended for children under eight years of age.

•Parents should periodically inspect this product for potential hazards and, if necessary,

have them repaired by an authorized Lionel Service Center. In the event that such a condi-

tion exists, the transformer should not be used until it has been properly repaired.

•The CW-80 Transformer is intended to be used indoors. Do not use this device if water is

present. Serious or fatal injuries may result.

•Use the CW-80 Transformer only for its intended purpose.

•The CW-80 Transformer was meant to operate on 120-volt, 60-Hertz power. Do not connect

this product to any other power supply.

•Do not operate the CW-80 Transformer with a damaged cord, plug, or case.

•To avoid the risk of electrical shock, do not disassemble the unit. There are no user service-

able parts inside. If damaged, take this product to an authorized Lionel Service Center. A

list of authorized Service Centers is packed with this unit.

•Do not operate the CW-80 Transformer on your layout unattended. Obstructed accessories

or stalled trains may overheat, resulting in damage to your layout.

•Always unplug the CW-80 Transformer from the power source when not in use.

•Never insert objects into the ventilation slots on this product. Damage to sensitive

electronic components can result.

Installing your CW-80 Transformer

To mount your CW-80 Transformer to your layout or control panel, drive a screw through

each of the four mounting holes located at the corners of the base.

Controller operations

Wiring your CW-80 Transformer

Controller operations

Connect your FasTrack terminal section to the CW-80 Transformer. Use the wires that are

already attached to the terminal section. Make sure that all connections are secure. Loose

connections can produce extremely high temperatures. For this reason, do not touch the

terminals or track connections during use. Also, do not locate scenery materials such as

lichen or ground foam near the terminals.

1. Feed the wires through the notch in the FasTrack terminal section. Refer to

Figure 3 on page 7.

2. Loosen the red TRACK thumbscrew terminal, then slide the red

spade-shaped connector into position. The thumbscrew post should be positioned

between the “blades” of the spade connector. Tighten the thumbscrew to secure the

connection.

3. Loosen the black TRACK thumbscrew terminal, then slide the black

spade-shaped connector into position. Tighten the thumbscrew to secure the

connection.

4. If you need to power an accessory (available separately at your

authorized Lionel dealer), connect the accessory to the ACCESSORY

thumbscrew terminals. Use the accessory wire included with the CW-80 Transformer.

5. Plug the CW-80 Transformer into your wall outlet (120 volts).

As your layout expands, you may also make power connections with the stripped ends of

wires, placing no more than two wires on each terminal. For best performance on large

layouts, it is recommended that you use 16-gauge wire to connect your CW-80 Transformer to

the track. On larger layouts where several track connections are required, the use of separate

junctions/terminal strips (available at your local electronics store) is recommended to

prevent voltage drops.

To prevent the excessive build up of heat, be sure to select the proper wire gauge

for your layout. Follow these guidelines:

•Track connections must be made with 18-gauge wire or heavier. Larger

layouts require a minimum of 16-gauge wire.

•Use 24-gauge wire only when connecting single accessories that require lower

current.

•When wiring multiple accessories (two or more) or accessories that require

higher current, be sure to use 18- to 16-gauge wire.

Caution!

Controller operations

Advanced connections: powering two isolated blocks with two

transformers

As you expand your layout, you may decide to create

two isolated blocks of track. Trains in each block

are controlled by separate transformers.

Before you operate your trains on this type of layout,

be sure that your transformers are in phase. Operating

your trains on a layout with two transformers that are

out of phase may cause damage to the locomotive’s sen-

sitive electronic components.

To be certain that your transformers are in phase, use

a small 18-volt lamp with leads (available at your local

electronics supply store) to perform a quick test. Refer to

Figure 4.

1. Attach one lamp wire to the center rail in one block.

2. Attach the second lamp wire to the center rail in the other block.

3. Power up both blocks of track. Both transformers should be set to full power.

4. See if the lamp illuminates.

If the lamp illuminates brightly, your transformers are not in phase. Do not operate your

trains on the layout until you change the wiring. If the lamp does not illuminate, your trans-

formers are in phase and should not cause problems.

To bring your transformers into phase, simply swap the track wires at the A and U terminals

on one of the transformers. If you are using an older transformer that lacks a polarized plug,

you may reverse the plug at the outlet so that the prongs are inserted into the opposite

openings. Repeat the procedure described above, and you should find that the lamp does not

illuminate.

This will also reverse the operation of the BELL and WHISTLE buttons on the

transformer with the switched wires.

Figure 4. Testing for proper phasing

Note!

Refer to Figure 5 on page 10 for the location of the Transformer features listed in this section.

THROTTLE

Push the throttle forward to increase track power. The markings on the throttle approxi-

mate the percentage of full power. For more realism, push the throttle slowly to gradually

increase or decrease the speed of the locomotive. Slowing or stopping the locomotive with the

throttle instead of the DIRECTION button will allow you to continue in the same direction

when you increase the throttle again. To achieve this effect, reduce the throttle to the point

that the locomotive stops moving, but don’t completely turn off the throttle. That way, your

train won’t sequence into neutral.

POWER-ON INDICATOR

The green light will remain on during normal operation. The green light will begin to

flash if you exceed the power limit of the Transformer. The unit will allow you to momentarily

exceed the power limit, but power will be gradually reduced until the problem is corrected.

The benefit is that the Transformer will not instantly turn off.

DIRECTION

The DIRECTION control button interrupts track power to activate the reverse unit in your

locomotive. Your locomotive will not respond to this button when the reverse unit switch is in

the OFF position.

WHISTLE

The WHISTLE button will activate your locomotive’s whistle or horn. The sound will con-

tinue until the button is released. No external sound activation buttons are needed.

Your locomotive features an operating air whistle in the tender.

BELL

The BELL button will activate the bell sounds on locomotives equipped with this feature. Press

and hold the BELL button for two to three seconds to begin the sounds; press and hold the button

again to turn off the ringing.

Your locomotive is not equipped with bell sounds.

Do not activate horns, whistles, or bells on RailSounds-equipped locomotives until

track power has been turned on for a few moments, or a continuous horn/whistle or

bell sound may occur. To correct this problem, simply turn off the CW-80

Transformer, then turn it back on.
