RAILKING USRA 2-8-8-2
STEAM ENGINE OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
Thank you for purchasing the RailKing die-cast USRA 2-8-8-2 steam
locomotive. The engine’s die-cast body and tender are traditionally sized
for operation on any O-31 or larger layout. The engine is compatible with
most standard AC transformers, (see page 31 for a complete list of
compatible transformers and wiring instructions) and is completely
compatible with most other 3-rail locomotives, rolling stock and
accessories.
The locomotive and tender are equipped with either a electronic whistle or
the Proto-Sound® digital sound and train control system which contains
several deluxe features that are simple and fun to operate. Each feature is
described among the following pages which should be read before the
engine is operated. For those of you who can’t wait to get started, the
Quick Start Basic Operating Instructions
found on page 3 should be read
so that you understand the basics of the operating system. Please note that
some features are only found in the Proto-Sound® equipped engines and are
marked as such. Features not marked as Proto-Sound® features are
available in both versions.
