R-21 4-CAR  SUBWAY SET 

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Thank you for purchasing the New York MTA R-21 4 Car Subway Set. The set’s durable 
ABS bodies and die-cast trucks are patterned and decorated after the New York Mass
Transit Authority R-21 cars and should run on any O-27 track.

 

 This RailKing Subway

Set contains M.T.H.’s Loco-Sound™ sound and train control system.  The set is easy to
operate with any compatible standard AC transformer (see the compatibility chart on
page 14), and is completely compatible with most other 3-rail locomotives, rolling stock,
and accessories.

Please read all the accompanying instructions carefully before setting up and operating
your locomotive.
