Features of the Trolley
Y
ou may choose to build a track layout that incorporates track bumpers (available separately;
6-12717, 6-62283, or 6-12715 for tubular track.) If you plan to operate the trolley on FasTrack,
we suggest only using 6-12059 Earthen Bumpers at the ends. Having a bumper at each end of the
track will cause the Trolley to change directions, and the unit will travel back and forth between the
bumpers.

Running your Trolley with a Lionel transformer
K
eep in mind that the front and rear bumpers trigger direction changes for your Trolley. Press
the rear bumper, and the car will go forward. Press the front bumper, and the car will go back-
ward. We recommend that you do not push rolling stock with the Trolley for long periods of time
and that you avoid colliding with other rolling stock and locomotives at high speeds.
Be sure that the trolley pole clears all tunnels, bridges, and scenery around your layout.
For extra clearance, hook the trolley poles in the down position.
1. Place your Trolley on Lionel or Lionel-compatible FasTrack, O or O-27 gauge track.
2. Power up your Trolley with your transformer. Your Trolley is designed to operate best at 8-14
volts (AC). Virtually all Lionel or Lionel-compatible alternating-current (AC) or direct-current
(DC) transformers are suitable.
3. Move ‘em out! Get your Trolley moving. Adjust track voltage until the unit moves at your desired
speed.
The Trolley will change directions when it strikes a bumper (available separately) at the end of
the track. Striking either end of the car will cause a direction change.
