Coach Car with Locomotive Sounds
Power your coach car with an alternating-current (50-60Hz AC) transformer only.
Powering your coach car with a direct-current (DC) transformer, or in excess of 19 volts
AC, may result in damage to sensitive electronic components.
Your coach car requires Lionel or Lionel-compatible O-36 or larger track curves.

F
or the finest operating experience, your coach car is fully compatible with the LEGACY Control
System. It will also operate on the original Lionel TrainMaster System (TMCC1) with limited
features and also on the LEGACY Cab-1L/Base-1L operating system (again, with reduced features).
Using a Lionel LEGACY Set (6-14295) will allow you to access ALL the features this coach car has to
offer.
Your commands are sent by the CAB-2 Remote Controller to the Command Base, which broad-
casts a radio frequency that is distributed through the outside rails of the track to your coach car.
Your coach car will not respond until it recognizes its unique ID#, so you can operate multiple
Command-equipped locomotives and coach cars on the same track at the same time.
1. Turn off track power, and then plug in the LEGACY Base and connect it to the
track.
2. Place your coach car on the track.
3. Increase track power voltage to full power (no more than 19 volts AC).
If a
circuit breaker trips when you turn on the Lionel power supply, check the wheels of your coach
car to make sure they are all securely on the track. Check to make sure the track is free of all
metals that may cause a short circuit.
4. As illustrated in Figure 3 on page 5, press ENG and 1 (or your selected ENG
ID#) to address the coach car with your LEGACY CAB-2 Remote Controller.
5. Press the Start Up key on your LEGACY CAB-2 Remote, shown in Figure 4 on
page 6.
