FAST FREIGHT SET WITH

PROTO-SOUND 2.0

READY-TO-RUN TRAIN SET

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Your RailKing

®Ready-To-Run train set is complete with everything you need to get

your model railroad up and running. This set includes a 4-6-0 steam locomotive, three

freight cars

, a transformer, a loop of RealTrax, the RailKing wireless infrared remote

control, and the infrared activated remote lock-on. M.T.H.’s exclusive RailWare

CD-ROM, which is included with this set, provides track layout software and other

information helpful to model railroaders.

This locomotive is equipped with Proto-Sound 2.0 with Digital Command System

(DCS). This new system will allow you to operate your locomotive in Command mode

(when used with the DCS Remote Control System, sold separately) or Conventional

mode. Conventional mode operating features are described in the following pages, while

the

DCS operating features are covered in the set of operating instructions that

accompanies the DCS equipment.

Conventional Mode operation of this locomotive is

much simpler than operation of original Proto-Sound engines. Please read all the

accompanying instructions carefully before setting up and operating your train set.

Set Up Checklist

• Assemble RealTrax®

• Connect the transformer

• Lubricate the train

• Place the engine and cars on the track and couple them together

• Apply power to run as described in the Basic Operation section of

these instructions.

Assembling RealTrax

Unlike other O Gauge track systems, each RealTrax section features a realistic

built-in roadbed base, solid nickel-silver track rails, and realistic railroad ties,

all designed to give you an authentic looking track system. The quick

connectors and built-in roadbed allow you to set up RealTrax anywhere,

including most carpeted surfaces, without the need for track nails or the worry

of carpet stains.

Each RealTrax segment has at least one knock-out tab in the roadbed (on either

end of the segment) that can be removed with a pair of pliers to reveal an

opening for the lock-on that is used to connect the transformer to the track (see

below). To assemble RealTrax, follow the instructions on the following page.

Connecting the Transformer

The Z-750®power supply included with this set provides an easy-to-use, safe

power source for AC-powered trains and accessories.

Plug the wire from the transformer into the remote lock-on’s center port, then

plug the transformer into the wall outlet. Insert two AA batteries (not

included) into the remote handheld.

Lubricating the Engine

You must lubricate the engine before operating it. Use a light household oil

and follow the lubrication points marked “L” in Fig. 10 on Page 14. Do not

over oil. Use only a drop or two on each

pivot point.

Priming the Smoke Unit

You should prime the smoke unit with smoke

fluid before operating. Add 15-20 drops of

smoke fluid from the included pipette

through the smokestack (see figure 4), then

gently blow into the stack to eliminate any air

bubbles in the fluid.

Add Smoke Fluid

Through Smokestack

Figure 4. Add Smoke Fluid

RailKing 4-6-0 Fast Freight Steam Engine

If you choose not to prime the unit

with fluid, turn the smoke unit switch

located under the

engine to the OFF

position (see Figure 5).

Running the

engine without a primed smoke unit

may cause damage.

See the

“ProtoSmoke Unit Operation” section

of this book for more information on

smoke unit maintenance.

Coupling the Engine and Cars

Our couplers are designed for realistic

operation. Place the engine and cars on

the track and couple them together. If the coupler is already closed, press

down on the small finger that extends from under the right side of the coupler

to open the coupler knuckle and allow the couplers to interlock as shown in

Figure 6.

Insert the reverse unit plug that extends out

of the tender into the receptacle at the back

of the engine. Connect the draw bar

between the engine and tender.

WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT THIS

ENGINE TO A TENDER FROM

ANOTHER ENGINE; IT MAY CAUSE

SERIOUSDAMAGE.

Look at the bottom

of the engine and tender where each will

have a color-coded stamp. If they match

you may connect those two pieces; if not,

don’t.

Remote Control

The RailKing®Remote Control System included with this set uses wireless

infrared technology, much like a television remote control, to allow users

remote control of their trains from up to 15 feet away. The remote and lock-on

replace the control box found with M.T.H.’s Z-750®transformer, and they are

designed for use with moderately powered transformers such as this one. It is

compatible with most manufacturer’s engines.

Because the RailKing remote is an infrared line-of-sight remote, you must aim

it at the lock-on in order to send signals to the track. You need to rotate the

lock-on’s receiver lens so that it faces the direction you will most often signal

from (see Figure 7 below). The receiver lens can be repositioned later as

needed. The green LED atop the lock-on will come on, indicating the track is

receiving power. Subsequent pushes of any buttons on the remote will cause

the LED to blink, indicating it is receiving the signal.

Note: The RailKing®Remote Control and Remote Lock-on will not

operate engines equipped with pre-1997 versions of Proto-Sound®or with

Proto-One,™Proto-Plus,™Proto-Deluxe,

™aftermarket systems.

RailKing 4-6-0 Fast Freight Steam Engine

Basic Operation

Throttle up the power to your track.

Give your train enough power so that

the head light shines brightly. Then put the engine into motion by firmly

pressing the Direction button on your remote once.

Operation Buttons

Use the operation buttons on your remote as described below.

•

Throttle – To increase or decrease track voltage, and therefore train speed,

press the throttle control rocker switch. Pressing the top end of the throttle

will increase voltage and speed. Pressing the bottom end of the throttle will

decrease voltage and speed. The engine will maintain the speed you set after

you release the throttle until you press it again to change the voltage and

speed.

•

Horn/Whistle - To sound the whistle, firmly press the Horn/Whistle button.

The whistle will sound for as long as you continue to depress the button. It

will stop when you release the button.

The whistle has four different endings,

depending on whether you hold the button for less than three seconds, three

seconds, four seconds, or five seconds or longer.

•

Bell - To sound the bell, firmly press and release the Bell button. To turn the

bell off, press and release the Bell button again. The bell will continue to ring

from the time your turn it on until you press and release the button again to

turn it off.

•

Direction – Your train is programmed to start in neutral. To put the engine

into forward and then to change the direction of the train or to put it into

neutral, firmly press and release the Direction button on your remote. Just as

you must stop your car between forward and reverse, this engine will not go

directly from forward to reverse; it goes into neutral between directions. If the

train has been moving forward, the first press of the Direction button will put

the train from forward into neutral, the second press into reverse, the third

press back into neutral, and the fourth back into forward.

To prevent

accidental high-speed start-ups, this engine is programmed to restart in neutral

each time the track voltage is turned off for 25 seconds or more.

•

Emergency Stop – To drop track voltage instantly to 0, firmly press the

Emergency Stop button. All trains on the track controlled by the remote will

stop until you reapply voltage.

Proto-Sound 2.0 Operating Instructions

This manual contains the operating instructions for Proto-Sound 2.0 in

conventional mode only. Instructions for accessing DCS command mode

features accompany the DCS Remote Control System equipment.

Because Proto-Sound 2.0 is an all-new system developed by M.T.H.’s own

research and development team, it operates differently from original

Proto-Sound. Most Proto-Sound 2.0 features are automatically enabled, and

the reset state has been eliminated, so there is no need to program features as

with original Proto-Sound. Although the new system is easier to operate than

original Proto-Sound, you should read these instructions thoroughly before

using Proto-Sound 2.0 features in order to prevent harm to yourself or your

equipment.

Activating Proto-Sound 2.0 Conventional Mode Features:

Proto-Sound 2.0 features are activated by sequences of Bell and Whistle

button pushes described below. Please read the full descriptions of each

feature before using it. To use these buttons to activate features rather than to

blow the whistle or ring the bell, you should press the buttons for a shorter

time (½ second); you may need to practice your timing to make this work

smoothly.

RailKing 4-6-0 Fast Freight Steam Engine

Freight Yard Sounds (FYS):

Your engine is equipped with a sound package of freight yard sounds that you

can play when you pull into a yard. Each sequence described below will play

as long as it is left on, randomly generating sounds, but be sure to allow

approximately 30 seconds between the button pushes described below to

allow the FYS sufficient time to run through each sequence.

1. To cue the sound system to play the FYS, quickly but firmly press the Bell

button once followed by 2 quick presses of the Whistle button while the engine

is moving.

2. Press the Direction button once to stop the engine. This will trigger the first

sequence of FYS. The reverse unit is temporarily disabled so that the train will

not move as you use the Direction button to trigger the sounds, and

Proto-Sound 2.0 has disabled operator control over the Whistle and Bell

buttons until the full FYS sequence is complete.

3. After waiting about 30 seconds for that sequence to run, press the Direction

button again to trigger the second sequence of FYS.

4. After about 30 seconds, press the Direction button again to trigger the third

FYS sequence.

5. Again, after allowing about 30 seconds for that sequence to run, press the

Direction button one more time to trigger the fourth and final FYS sequence.

The FYS will continue, and within a few seconds, the engine will start and

move out on its own at the current throttle setting, in the same direction it was

traveling when you began the sequence. Once the bell turns off, the operator

regains control of the transformer’s bell and whistle buttons and can ring the

bell or blow the whistle as usual.
