While conventional mode operation of a Proto-Sound 2.0 engine yields wonderfully
realistic sound and several train control features, command mode operation allows
the user to access a world of command functions never before accessible to O Gauge

remote hand-held and Track Interface Unit) users gain many advanced features,
including:

hour
increments via a thumbwheel control and allows operator to set maximum speed and
acceleration/deceleration rates.

and interior lights, and ditch lights
.
Emergency Stop-Single button push stops your trains (but does not turn off
track power).

locomotives user-defined actions, including sound, lights, and smoke.
