Look at the
bottom of the engine and tender where each will have a color-coded stamp. If
they match you may connect those two pieces; if not, don’t.
Connect the draw bar between the engine and tender. The draw bar hole located

Checking the Battery
You may find, if your locomotive was built several months before you set it up,
that the rechargeable battery has run down and needs to be charged before
operating. If you notice that the sounds are garbled, test and charge the engine
as described in the "Self-Charging Battery Back-Up" on page 18.
