RailKing 6-8-6  Steam Turbine Engine

Freight Yard Sounds (FYS): 

Your engine is equipped with a sound package of freight yard sounds that you
can play when you pull into a yard.  

Each sequence described below will play 

as long as it is left on, randomly generating sounds, but be sure to allow
approximately 30 seconds between the button pushes described below to
allow the FYS sufficient time to run through each sequence.

1. To cue the sound system to play the FYS, quickly but firmly press the Bell
button once followed by 2 quick presses of the Whistle button while the engine 
is moving.  

2. Press the Direction button once to stop the engine.  This will trigger the first
sequence of FYS. The reverse unit is temporarily disabled so that the train will
not move as you use the Direction button to trigger the sounds, and
Proto-Sound 2.0 has disabled operator control over the Whistle and Bell
buttons until the full FYS sequence is complete.

3. After waiting about 30 seconds for that sequence to run, press the Direction
button again to trigger the second sequence of FYS. 

4. After about 30 seconds, press the Direction button again to trigger the third
FYS sequence.  

5. Again, after allowing about 30 seconds for that sequence to run, press the
Direction button one more time to trigger the fourth and final FYS sequence. 
The FYS will continue, and within a few seconds, the engine will start and
move out on its own at the current throttle setting, in the same direction it was
traveling when you began the sequence.  Once the bell turns off, the operator
regains control of the transformer’s bell and whistle buttons and can ring the
bell or blow the whistle as usual.
