our locomotive is illuminated by several LEDs (light emitting diodes) and are not 
user-serviceable. They can be replaced by your authorized Lionel Service Center, if 

it is ever required. 

You should never attempt this yourself due to the complexity of 

this VISION Line locomotive.

Maintaining and servicing your locomotive

Maintaining your locomotive’s handrail antenna

T

he handrails on your locomotive are the antennas that receive the digital 
communication from the Command Base. For optimum reception, the handrails 

have been insulated from the die-cast body. 

Please handle the locomotive carefully 

to avoid handrail damage.

 The handrails should not touch the locomotive’s body.

If your locomotive appears to have problems receiving communications from the 

Command Base, be sure that the ends of the handrails are insulated from the body 
with either an insulating washer or handrail stanchion.

Servicing your locomotive’s lamps 

Before having the headlamp in your locomotive changed, be sure to check 
that the 

AUX2

 command was not used to turn the headlamp off. 

Note!
