ou’re clear for departure! Move the throttle control handle forward to increase power to
the track. The farther forward you push the handle, the faster your train will go.

er the load on the engine (adding more cars for the engine to pull, for example), the farther
forward the handle must be pushed before it will operate the locomotive.
