Loading and Unloading in Conventional Operation Only
I
n conventional (transformer-controlled) operation, the short horn or short whistle command
will trigger loading and unloading. Note that locomotive dialog is also triggered by a short horn.
Within the first 15 seconds of stopping, a short horn will play a produce unloading scene. When
stopped for more than 15 seconds, a short horn will trigger a produce loading scene. Icing and
re-icing scenes are not available in conventional operation.
Unloading
T
he unloading scene can be triggered at any time. It’s not necessary to load the car prior to
unloading, although it would be more protypical (and fun!) to load first. With your VISION
Reefer powered up and making sound (see page 7) move your train to the desired location on your
layout for unloading produce. CAB-2 users should use Train Link (page 12), CAB-1L operators will
need to enter the engine ID assigned your reefer.
On your Legacy remote, press the Train Link button. Tap and release the Unload button. Press the
Train Link button again to continue controlling your train.
On your CAB-1 or CAB-1L remote, press TR, ENG, and the reefer ID. Press the 6 key. Press TR
to continue controlling your train.
Listen as the foreman directs the crew to unload the produce. Listen for the background sounds of
men working. The loading sequence will run about 6 seconds and include 2-3 lines of dialog from
the
foreman.
By pressing and holding and hold the Unload button or the 6 key, you can extend the unloading
sequence indefinately. As the longer sequence plays, listen for a variety of orders from the foreman. If
he thinks the unloading is taking too long, you’ll hear him ordering his crew to work faster.
