LEGACY RailSounds sound system operations
Installing the battery
W
hile the LEGACY RailSounds sound system is powered through the track, we recommend
that you install a nine-volt alkaline battery in the powered A-unit locomotive to prevent
the sound system from shutting down during track power interruptions (for example, at a
switch or a dirty section of track). Follow these steps and refer to Figure 3 as you install the
battery.
If the LEGACY RailSounds sound system turns off during interruptions in track
power, you may need to replace the battery.
1. Carefully lift up and remove the rear roof-top hatch.
2. Remove the protective cover from the battery harness.
3. Snap the battery harness onto the nine-volt alkaline battery’s terminals.
4. Slide the battery into the battery clip.
5. Replace the hatch, which is held in place by two magnets.
