RAILKING EP-5 ELECTRIC ENGINE
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Thank you for purchasing the RailKing® EP-5 electric engine. This
reproduction of the famous EP-5 engine measures just over 14” in length
and weighs almost 4 ¼ pounds. The engine’s durable ABS body and
die-cast trucks are traditionally sized for operation on most O-27 Gauge
track. The engine should operate for years with most compatible AC
transformers (see the chart on page 31 for a list of compatible transformers)
and is completely compatible with most 3-rail locomotives, rolling stock
and accessories.
The locomotive is equipped with either an electronic horn or the Proto
sound® Digital Sound and train control system which contains several
deluxe features that are simple and fun to operate. Each feature is described
among the following pages which should be read before the engine is
operated. For those of you who can’t wait to get started, the
Quick Start
Basic Operating Instructions
found on Pages 3 and 4 should be read so that
you understand the basics of the operating system. Please note that some
features are only found in the Proto sound® models and are marked as such.
Features not marked as Proto sound® features are available in all models.
