Basic Operation

The Throttle  knob controls how fast your train will travel.  Turn the throttle knob 
up ½-way, until the engine and caboose lights shine bright.  Put the engine into 
motion by pressing the Direction button on your transformer once. (hold it for 
approximately 1 second)

If  the engine does not begin to move as soon as you firmly press the Direction 
button, you may not have sent enough voltage to the track to make the train move.  
Turn the throttle up a bit higher until the train begins to move. 

Activating Features

Throttle

  To increase or decrease track voltage, and therefore train speed, turn the 

throttle control knob. Turning clockwise  will increase voltage and speed, while 
turning counterclockwise will decrease voltage and speed.  The engine will maintain 
the speed you set after you release the throttle until you turn it again to change the 
voltage and speed.

Bell

 - To sound the bell, in an engine equipped with a bell firmly press and release 

the Bell button. To turn the bell off, press and release the Bell button again.  The 
bell will continue to ring from the time you turn it on until you press and release 
the button again to turn it off. 

Horn/Whistle

 - To sound the whistle, firmly press the Horn/Whistle button. The 

whistle will sound for as long as you continue to depress the button.  It will stop 
when you release the button.  

Direction 

 Your train is programmed to start in neutral.  The train will always cycle 

neutral-forward-neutral-reverse with each press 
and release of  the direction button.  The engine 
is programmed to restart in neutral before 
forward each time the track voltage is turned off  
for 25 seconds or more. 

Grade Crossing Signal  

DCS Mode Only 

Customers that operate this engine in 

DCS will find a new feature added to the engine sound set. Now there is a soft key 
(SXS) that sounds the correct 2 longs, a short and another long whistle blast to 
announce that the train is approaching a grade crossing.
To sound the grade crossing signal, locate the soft keys at the top of the DCS 
Remote. Scroll to the left until SXS acronym is showing.
A single push and release of  the SXS soft key will produce the correct 2 longs, a 
short and another long whistle blast of  the Grade Crossing Signal.
Anytime you want to sound the Grade crossing Signal just press and release the 
SXS soft key.
