Quick Start
Power your locomotive with an alternating-current (AC) transformer only. Powering
your locomotive with a direct-current (DC) transformer, or in excess of 19 volts AC,
may result in damage to sensitive electronic components.
LEGACY Control operations
For the finest operating experience, your SD70M-2 locomotive is fully compatible with the
new LEGACY Control System.
To operate in LEGACY mode, you need a LEGACY Command Base and LEGACY CAB-2
Remote Controller. Both products are offered together in the LEGACY Command Set, 6-14295.

LEGACY Control System operations–overview
Please note that not all LEGACY products have all the features
mentioned in this section.
This section is a brief overview of the LEGACY Control System. For a more in
depth explanation of the LEGACY Control System features, please see your LEGACY
Control System Operations Manual or visit www.lionel.com to download a copy of
the latest LEGECY Control System maual.
GET READY TO RUN
Get your engine running now by following the instructions in this guide. We'll power up the track,
"address the engine" so it can be controlled by your CAB-2 remote and learn to use the Velocity
Throttle, Whistle, Bell, Brake and Direction commands.
Power Up The Track
Refer to PowerMaster, TPC, or ZW manual for the correct method to power up. With your
locomotive on the track and ready to roll, power-up your track to a constant 18 volts. If a circuit
breaker trips when you turn on the Lionel power supply, check the wheels of your locomotive to make
sure they are all securely on the track. Check to make sure the track is free of all metals that may
cause a short circuit.
Address Your Engine
First, you must address the engine. This "tells" your CAB-2 which locomotive you want to control.
This is important when you have more than one engine on your layout.
To address an engine:
1. Press ENG
2. Press 1
3. Press Start Up
See reference numbers 1, 2, and 3
Start 'Er Up
Now it is time to start up your engine's sound system.
To start the engine's Railsounds system, press Start on the touch-screen or any action key
(Whistle, Bell, Velocity Throttle, etc.).
Your engine sound system will start up and the Touch-screen Control Panel will appear.

LEGACY Control System operations–overview
THE VELOCITY THROTTLE
The Velocity Throttle (that big red rotary knob in the middle of your Lionel remote) is
used to start your engine moving, slow it down or speed it up. Use it simply by turning it
clockwise (speed up) or counter-clockwise (slow down).
4. Turn the Velocity Throttle clockwise a small amount. Your engine will begin to move.
5. Experiment with the engine’s response to the Velocity Throttle. Turn the Velocity Throttle
clock-wise and counter-clock-wise.
6. Slow and stop your engine by turning the Velocity Throttle counter-clockwise.
7
See reference numbers 4, 5, and 6
Boost & Brake
Boost and brake give you another way to control the speed of your train. Boost gives your loco a
temporary increase in tractive power, and returns to the previous speed when you release the control,
while the brake command slows you down quicker than the Velocity Throttle alone and holds your
speed at the adjusted level.
9. Experiment with Boost and Brake. Notice how your engine responds to the Multi-Controller.
See reference number 9
LEGACY Control System operations–overview
THE MULTI-CONTROLLER
Direction
The direction of your engine toggles between forward and reverse at the touch of the Multi-
Controller.
7. Press the Multi-Controller once. Your engine's lights will change directions.
8. Turn the Velocity Throttle clockwise a small amount. Your Engine will reverse directions
and travel in the opposite direction.
8
See reference numbers 7, and 8
LEGACY Control System operations–overview
THE TRAIN BRAKE SLIDER
A
Train Brake is used to slow down and limit the top speed of your train by adding a load.
The more the Train Brake is applied by pulling the Train Brake Slider down, the more
laboring is heard from the engine. Eventually Train Brake application will slow down the train
and it is even possible to stop a train by pulling the Train Brake Slider all the way down. A
tremendous amount of laboring can be heard whenever you apply the Train Brake in a large
amount.
10. Experiment with the Train Brake. Try a small amount of the Train Brake when your
engine is moving down the rails at a medium speed. Notice the effect the Train Brake has
on sound and speed. Try adding more Train brake and notice that the Train Brake can
limit the top speed available to your engine.
Try adding even more Train Brake and notice that the Engine sounds like it is working
harder and harder as the Train Brake is applied more.

THE WARNING SOUND CONTROLLER
Warning sounds are an important part of Lionel Railroading. Your Lionel Legacy Control
System equipped engines have a real-time variable "quilling" whistle and horn, while
Lionel TMCC engines do not have this feature.
11. Blow the Horn/Whistle by pulling down on the Warning Sound Controller.
12. Try pulling down the Warning Sound Controller various amounts and listen. Notice the
difference in intensity of the Whistle or Horn.
13. Push the Warning Sound Controller up once and quickly release. Notice that the bell rings
once.
14. Push the Warning Sound Controller up and hold it for 1.5 seconds. Notice that the Bell is
sounding continuously.
15. Push the Warning Sound Controller up once. Notice that the continuous Bell stops.
16. Experiment with ringing the Bell in your own rhythm or continuously, depending on how
you push the Warning Sound Controller
