RAILKING SW1500
DIESEL ENGINE
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This RailKing SW1500 road switcher is perfectly suited for freight yard and industrial
work on your railroad. It has an ABS body and die-cast floor and runs on O-27 track.
This RailKing Diesel Engine contains state-of-the-art electronics with many built-in
automatic features for incredibly realistic operation. Despite these advanced features, the
locomotive is easy to operate with any compatible standard AC transformer (see the
compatibility chart on page 18), and is completely compatible with most other 3-rail
locomotives, rolling stock, and accessories.
This locomotive is equipped with Proto-Sound 2.0 with Digital Command System
(DCS). This new system will allow you to operate your locomotive in Command mode
(when used with the DCS Remote Control System, sold separately) or Conventional
mode. Conventional operating features are described in the following pages, while the
DCS operating features are covered in the set of operating instructions that
accompanies the DCS equipment.
Conventional Mode operation of this locomotive is
much simpler than operation of original Proto-Sound engines. For your own safety and
that of your equipment, please read the instructions before you operate this engine.
