Convent onal transformer operat ons
Conventional operations
Your locomotive set is capable of operating in the conventional environment with nothing more than a standard Lionel alternating-current (AC) transformer.
In the conventional environment, your powered A-unit locomotive cycles through a
repeating pattern of operations: forward, neutral, reverse, neutral, and so on. To advance to the
next operation, press the DIRECTIO button on your transformer. Alternately, you could use
the throttle to briefly turn off track power so that the locomotive advances to the next operation
when power is restored.
Once you cycle the powered A-unit locomotive into forward or reverse, you control your
locomotive set’s speed by varying track voltage with the transformer’s throttle. To increase the
speed of the locomotive, you increase track voltage. To decrease the speed, you decrease track
voltage. To stop the locomotive and to change directions (or to enter neutral), track voltage is
turned off or interrupted.
Use the HOR and BELL buttons on your transformer (or separate buttons if your
transformer is not equipped with these controls) to activate these features. Only the powered
A-unit is equipped with sounds.
To experience all of your locomotive set’s features, we recommend operating in the
TrainMaster Command Control environment. With a simple one-wire connection, you can use
the CAB-1 Remote Controller to access all of the functions of your locomotive set. Refer to
pages 17-25 to see how to operate your locomotive set in the TrainMaster Command Control
environment.

Operating your locomotive set in the conventional environment
1. Place your train set on Lionel or Lionel-compatible O-31 or larger track.
Be sure that the non-powered A-unit faces the rear of the train. The back-up light on the B-
unit should face the rear of the train.
2. Power your locomotive set at 8-18 volts with your alternating current (AC)
transformer.
Power your locomotive set with an alternating-current (AC) transformer only.
Powering your locomotive set with a direct-current (DC) transformer may result
in damage to sensitive electronic components.
3. Wait three to eight seconds as your locomotive’s headlight illuminates and
the RailSounds sound system starts up.
When the locomotive set has determined that a TrainMaster Command Base is not connected
to the track, the locomotive set’s headlight will illuminate and the RailSounds sound system
will start. You are ready for operation in the conventional environment.
4. Move ‘em out!
Press the DIRECTIO button on your transformer to sequence your powered A-unit
locomotive through the repeating pattern of operations: forward, neutral, reverse, neutral,
and so on. You may also briefly turn off track power to advance the locomotive set to the
next operating state. Adjust the throttle until your locomotive set moves at your desired
speed.
When placing your powered A-unit locomotive on your layout for the first time, it will
start out in neutral. Thereafter, it will start in forward after every power interruption
lasting five seconds or longer.
Use the HOR and BELL buttons on your transformer to activate those features on the
powered A-unit locomotive. Refer to page 13 if your transformer is not equipped with those
buttons.

Convent onal transformer operat ons
Locking your powered A-unit locomotive into a single direction
When the Command reverse unit switch is in the RUN position, your powered A-unit locomotive sequences through a repeating pattern of operations: forward, neutral, reverse,
neutral, and so on.
To “lock” your powered A-unit locomotive into a single direction (for example, to operate in
forward only), you can deactivate the Command reverse unit’s sequencing function. Refer to
Figure 1 for the location of the Command reverse unit switch.
1. Use your transformer’s DIRECTIO button or interruptions in track power to get your
powered A-unit locomotive moving in the desired direction or into neutral.
2. Slow the locomotive down without stopping (reduce the throttle without turning off track
power).
3. Slide the Command reverse unit switch on the powered A-unit locomotive to the P M
position. At this point, the locomotive is “locked” into your chosen direction.
To restore the forward-neutral-reverse sequence, just slide the Command reverse unit switch
back to the RUN position.
Your locomotive will “reset” to forward after any power interruption lasting five
seconds or longer, regardless of the direction you set.

Coupling your locomotive set in the conventional environment
Each locomotive unit is equipped with one ElectroCoupler that is released by remote control at any point around your layout in the TrainMaster Command Control environment. The
ElectroCouplers are located on the nose of the A-unit and the rear of the B-unit.
In the conventional environment, the ElectroCouplers will not open manually or by using a
Remote-Control Track section. To couple your locomotive in the conventional environment, you
must rely on a piece of rolling stock equipped with a magnetic coupler. Simply release the
magnetic coupler and couple the rolling stock to the locomotive, even if the ElectroCoupler is
closed.
Keep in mind that you may still make use of Lionel Remote-Control Track sections (6-65530
for O gauge; 6-12746 and 6-65149 for O-27 gauge; and 6-12020 for FasTrack layouts) with the
magnetic couplers on the rolling stock. Place the trigger disc on the magnetic coupler over the
central coil on the Remote-Control Track section, then press UNCOUPLE on the track section’s
controller. As illustrated in Figure 2, the magnetic field pulls the disc downward, releasing the
coupler.

Ra lSounds 5.0 sound system operat ons
RailSounds 5.0 sound system operations
Your non-powered B-unit locomotive is equipped with the Lionel RailSounds 5.0 sound system, the most realistic model railroad sound system in the world. The RailSounds sound
system brings the sounds of the railroad to your layout through high quality sound recordings
of real locomotives.
When you operate your non-powered B-unit locomotive in the conventional environment,
you get the realistic sounds of the diesel motor, which automatically revs up as the speed of the
locomotive increases. You can sound the locomotive’s horn or activate the ringing of the
mechanical bell. CrewTalk dialog and TowerCom announcements are triggered with the horn
button on your controller. When you are through with operations and power down the track,
your locomotive’s RailSounds sound system starts a realistic shutdown sequence (a nine-volt
alkaline battery is required, see page 10).
When you operate your non-powered B-unit locomotive in the TrainMaster Command
Control environment, you get full control of the RailSounds 5.0 sound system. In addition to
the horn and bell sounds, the locomotive’s RPM sounds automatically rev up, and you can also
set a particular RPM level using your CAB-1 Remote Controller. In the Command Control
environment, the release of the ElectroCouplers is accompanied by a coupler release sound. Use
the BRAKE button, and listen for the sound of squealing metal. You can also trigger CrewTalk
dialog and TowerCom announcements, which simulate the interaction between the locomotive
crew and the dispatcher. Whenever you choose to shutdown your locomotive, the realistic
shutdown sequence commences (a nine-volt alkaline battery is required if track power is turned
off, see page 10).

Ra lSounds 5.0 sound system operat ons
Installing the battery
While the RailSounds sound system is powered through the track, we recommend that you install a nine-volt alkaline battery in the non-powered B-unit locomotive to prevent the
sound system from shutting down during track power interruptions (for example, at a switch or
a dirty section of track). Follow these steps and refer to Figure 3 as you install the battery.
If the RailSounds sound system turns off during interruptions in track power, you
may need to replace the battery.
1. Remove the screws on each end of the non-powered B-unit and lift the body off the frame..
2. Snap the battery into the battery clip on the circuit board.
3. Replace the body, securing it with the two screws.

Ra lSounds 5.0 sound system operat ons
Using the RailSounds 5.0 sound system in the conventional environment
When you first power up your non-powered B-unit locomotive, you will hear the sounds of the locomotive at rest. As the locomotive set moves, the RPM sounds automatically
increase with the locomotive’s speed. In the conventional environment, the horn and bell
sounds are activated by your transformer controls.
To silence the motor sounds, slide the RailSounds 5.0 sound system switch located on the
underside of the non-powered B-unit locomotive to the SI NALSOUNDS position before you power
up the locomotive or after the locomotive has been powered down for a minimum of ten seconds.
The horn and bell sounds will still be active. To adjust the volume, use the F3 B-unit’s radiator fan
volume control knob. Refer to Figure 3 on page 10.
For proper operation of the RailSounds 5.0 sound system during track power
interruptions and for the locomotive shutdown sequence, you must install a nine-volt
alkaline battery. See page 10.
In the conventional environment, you will experience several features of the RailSounds 5.0
sound system.
•Eight levels of diesel motor RPM. The level of diesel motor RPM automatically varies
with your throttle adjustments.
•MultiHorn. A different horn sound at different speeds—a RailSounds sound system
exclusive.
•Mechanical bell. Press BELL on your transformer to begin the effect, then press BELL a
second time to discontinue the effect.
•CrewTalk dialog and TowerCom announcements. CrewTalk dialog is triggered by
your transformer’s HOR button.
•Reverse unit reset sound. Power down your track, wait three seconds, and listen for
the air-release sound—that’s the locomotive telling you that its Lionel Command reverse
unit has reset to forward.
•Shutdown sequence. When you turn off track power, you have two seconds to power up
again after you hear the reverse unit reset sound. If you do not restore power, you will hear
the realistic diesel shutdown sequence. Because track power is off, a nine-volt battery is
required for this sequence to function. Refer to Figure 3 on page 10.

Ra lSounds 5.0 sound system operat ons
Activating the CrewTalk dialog and TowerCom announcements in the
conventional environment
In the conventional environment, CrewTalk dialog and TowerCom announcements are triggered by short whistle blasts and vary with the state of the locomotive.
• If the non-powered B-unit locomotive has been stopped for less than 15 seconds, a short
whistle blast triggers a “please standby” dialog.
• If the non-powered B-unit locomotive has been stopped for longer than 15 seconds, a short
whistle blast triggers a “cleared outbound” dialog.
• If the non-powered B-unit locomotive is moving, a short whistle blast triggers an “all clear
ahead” dialog.
• If the non-powered B-unit locomotive is moving with the bell activated, a short whistle blast
triggers a “slow to caution” dialog.

Using the RailSounds 5.0 sound system in the TrainMaster Command
Control environment
To access all of the features of the RailSounds 5.0 sound system, you must operate your non- powered B-unit locomotive in the TrainMaster Command Control environment. The CAB-1
Remote Controller is required to activate features such as TowerCom announcements, CrewTalk
communication, and coupler release sounds. Refer to pages 17-25 to learn how the RailSounds
5.0 sound system is integrated into TrainMaster Command Control operations.
For proper operation of the RailSounds 5.0 sound system during track power
interruptions and for the locomotive shutdown sequence, you must install a nine-volt
alkaline battery. See page 10.
In the TrainMaster Command Control environment, you will experience all of the features of
the RailSounds sound system.
•Eight levels of diesel motor RPM. Your CAB-1 Remote Controller throttle
automatically determines the level of the diesel motor RPM. You may also set the RPM
sounds to a particular level manually using your CAB-1 Remote Controller.
•MultiHorn. A different horn sound at different speeds—a RailSounds 5.0 sound system
exclusive.
•Mechanical bell. Press BELL on your CAB-1 Remote Controller to begin the effect, then
press BELL a second time to discontinue the effect.
•Squealing brakes. Press the BRAKE button and listen for the squealing of the
locomotive’s brakes as the locomotive slows down.
•Coupler release sounds. Use your CAB-1 Remote Controller to release an
ElectroCoupler, and you get the sounds of the coupler opening.
•CrewTalk dialog and TowerCom announcements. Use your CAB-1 Remote Controller
to trigger conversations between the dispatcher and locomotive engineer. You’ll hear “hold for
clearance,” “cleared for departure,” and many other exchanges. See pages 15 and 16.
•Shutdown sequence. When you turn off track power, you have two seconds to power up
again after you hear the reverse unit reset sound. If you do not restore power, you will hear
the realistic diesel shutdown sequence. Because track power is off, a nine-volt battery is
required for this sequence to function. Refer to Figure 3 on page 10. You may also trigger
the shutdown sequence without powering down the track using the AUX1, 5 command
when the locomotive is stopped and the diesel RPM sounds are at their lowest level.

Activating the CrewTalk dialog and TowerCom announcements in
the Command Control environment
With the RailSounds 5.0 sound system, CrewTalk dialog and TowerCom announcements feature a variety of brief radio conversations between the engineer and dispatcher. All
dialog is intelligible, and each comment is followed by at least one automatic response.
CrewTalk dialog is an engineer-initiated radio conversation with the dispatcher. TowerCom
announcements are a dispatcher-initiated radio conversation with the engineer. Be sure to listen
for the different combinations of words and phrases that comprise these exchanges.
Refer to Table 1 below for the dialog commands. The dialog in the table provides examples of
the conversations you can trigger. The actual phrasing will vary.

Tra nMaster Command Control operat ons
TrainMaster Command Control operations
TrainMaster Command Control is the advanced model railroad control system from Lionel. To operate your locomotive set in the Command Control environment, you need a Command Base
(available separately, 6-12911) and a CAB-1 Remote Controller (available separately, 6-12868).
Your commands are sent by the CAB-1 Remote Controller to the Command Base, which then
translates the command into digital code. That code is sent through the outside rails to your
locomotive, which will not respond until it recognizes its unique ID#. TrainMaster Command
Control gives you the power to operate multiple Command-equipped locomotives on the same
track at the same time.
Keep in mind that track power is like gasoline in the tank of a car—it gives you the power
to go places, but it doesn’t tell you where to go or how fast to get there.
Operating your locomotive set in the Command Control environment
1. Turn off track power and plug-in the Command Base. Be sure that the
Command Base is connected to the outside rail or to the Common/ round/U terminal on
your track power supply.
2. Place your train set on Lionel or Lionel-compatible O-31 or larger track.
Be sure that the back-up light on the B-unit and the headlight on the non-powered A-unit
face the rear of the train.
3. Increase track voltage to full power (no more than 19 volts AC). On
PowerMasters, slide the CMD/CONV switch to CMD. Program Track Power Controllers to
Command Control operation.
4. To operate your locomotive as a lash-up, press TR and 9on your CAB-1 Remote
Controller. To operate your locomotives individually, press E G and enter 1for the powered
A-unit and 2for the non-powered B-unit.
To change the lash-up or individual ID#’s, refer to pages 23 and 24.
5. Throttle up and move ‘em out! Your locomotive set will respond to every command
from your CAB-1 Remote Controller.
