Tinplate Traditions 3243R Electric Engine
Additional Features Accessible with the DCS Remote
Control System:
While conventional mode operation of a Proto-Sound 2.0 engine yields
wonderfully realistic sound and several train control features, command mode
operation allows the user to access a world of command functions never before
accessible to O Gauge railroaders. With the addition of the DCS Remote
Control System (including a DCS remote handheld and Track Interface Unit)
users gain many advanced features, including:
• DCS Proto-Speed Control-Establishes desired locomotive speed in scale
miles per hour increments via a thumbwheel control and allows operator to set
maximum speed and acceleration/deceleration rates.

marker and interior lights, and ditch lights.
• Emergency Stop-Single button push stops your trains (but does not turn off
track power).

DCS-controlled locomotives’ user-defined actions, including sound, lights, and
smoke.
