locomotive. The LEDs are not user serviceable. If service is required, we recommend that
you have your locomotive serviced at a Lionel Factory Trained Authorized Service Station or

Servicing your locomotive’s LEDs
If the locomotive is powered up and the lights are not on, check that the

command was not used to turn the lamps off.
Note!
Replacing the traction tires
Y
our locomotive is equipped with traction tires to increase the tractive effort of your
locomotive and allow it to pull more cars at once.
During the course of normal operations, the traction tires may become worn out. To
replace the traction tires, remove the side frame screws from the underside of the trucks and
lift away the side frame. Remove the worn tire, then slip the replacement around the wheel.
Reposition the side frame on the truck and secure it with the two screws.
