Your locomotive remembers its ID# forever;
change it any time with these steps
We recommend that you choose an
easy to remember ID# for your
engine. Some possibilities are part of
the engine road number, your age,
any two digit number that is
not
used by another engine.
If you like
write the number on a small piece of
tape and put this on the bottom of
the frame to aid in remembering.
