33 Move ‘em out!
Place your steam locomotive on Lionel or Lionel-compatible O gauge track.• With track power OFF, connect the locomotive tether between the engine and
tender. The four-pin tender plug connects with the four-pin receptacle on the loco-motive. Connect the drawbar between locomotive and tender.
• The engine tether receptacle is “keyed” to allow the harness to be plugged in onlyone way.
11Running your steam locomotive with a Lionel transformer
Note!
Power up your steam locomotive with your transformer.
• Your locomotive is designed to operate on 10-18 volts alternatingcurrent. Virtually all Lionel and Lionel-compatible alternating-current trans-formers are suitable.
• Do not power your locomotive with direct current (DC). Damage tosensitive electronic components may occur.
• When you first power up your track, the locomotive will waitbetween 3 and 8 seconds as it “listens” for digital language from theTrainMaster Command Base (available separately). When it’s determined that it’son a conventional (nonCommand) railroad, the locomotive’s headlight will illu-minate and Railsounds will fire up. At this point, the locomotive is in neutral.(This occurs when placing the locomotive on your railroad for the first time.Thereafter, it starts in forward after every three-second power interrupt.)
• Get your locomotive moving. Press the DIR button on your CAB-1 remote orLionel transformer. This sequences the Lionel Command reverse unit (R2LC) tothe next operating state. The R2LC alternates between three states: forward, neu-tral, and reverse.
• Adjust track voltage until your locomotive moves at your desired speed. Toincrease speed, increase track voltage. To decrease speed, reduce voltage. To stopthe locomotive, cut track power.
• To select a single operating state (example: forward only) you can deacti-vate the R2LC’s sequencing function. Get your locomotive moving in the desireddirection, then slide the Program/Run switch on the locomotive’s underside toPROGRAM. See page 13 for the switch location and positioning.

Transformer operationsUsing your tenders Electrocoupler in the non-Command environment
T he rear of your Lionel locomotive’s ten-der is equipped with an Electrocoupler.
When in the non-Command environment,you must first couple a piece of rolling stockequipped with Lionel magnetic couplersdirectly to your tender. The magnetic coupleron the rolling stock will then react to the
magnetic field generated by a Lionel remote-control track section (available separately).Place your rolling stock’s coupler “triggerdisc” over the central coil of a remote-con-trol track section and press uncouple on thecontroller. The magnetic field pulls the discdownward, and the coupler opens.
Your locomotive’s tender mountedElectrocoupler will NOT open manually or by
using a remote-control track section

Transformer operations
Tire-Traction™
Your locomotive is equipped with Tire-Traction. This means that two of the
drive wheels are fitted with rubber tractiontires to enhance tractive effort so your loco-motive can pull many cars at once.
Lionel locomotives with Tire-Traction gripthe track, enabling them to pull heavy loadsat higher speeds.
Lionel has provided an extra set of traction
tires to replace the installed traction tires ifthey wear out. Simply unscrew the drive rodnut from the wheel and slip off the old trac-tion tire and remove it from under the driverod. Place the new one on the wheel in thereverse of this step and tighten the drive rodnut back up and your ready to pull that longfreight back to the yard.
Adding fluid to your Locomotive’s smoke generator
Your Locomotive is equipped with asmoke generator that produces safe,
clean white smoke during operation.The smoke generator requires the periodic
addition of Lionel smoke fluid in order tofunction. Pierce the tube end with a pin,then add four to eight drops of fluid directlyinto the Locomotive’s stack. Smoke produc-tion will commence momentarily, faster ifyou run your Locomotive at speed. Whensmoke production wanes, add more fluid(four to eight drops).
If you prefer to have a smoke free locomo-tive, there is a switch located on the bottom of
the engine under the cab marked SMOKE ONOFF (see page 13 for location). Move theswitch to off and your locomotive will stopsmoking.
An idle locomotive will not smoke; pressAUX1 and 9 (press for a maximum of 10 sec-onds) to engage the smoke generator atidle/in neutral. When the smoke unit is onalways keep a small amount of smoke fluid inthe Locomotive’s smoke generator; the genera-tor’s element can become damaged if operatedwithout fluid. Smoke production is greater athigher voltages and when the Locomotive ispulling a heavy load or long consist.

Transformer operationsYour locomotive’s RailSounds system—the basics
Lionel RailSounds is the most realisticmodel railroad sound system in the
world. Your locomotive RailSounds featuresdigital samples for the ultimate in realism.
Begin by installing a 9-volt alkaline bat-tery in your tender. This ensures interruptionfree operation of RailSounds. Remove thetender body as described on page 15. Connectthe 9-volt alkaline battery to the battery clip(remove the protective cover from the batteryclip), and place the battery in the holderinside the tender.
When you first apply track power, the loco-
motive’s RailSounds system delivers anauthentic start-up sequence, followed by thesounds of the locomotive at idle. As the loco-motive’s speed increases, the chuff rate willincrease too.
To silence the steam chuff (horn and bellremain unaffected), slide the RailSoundsswitch, located underneath the tender, to theSIGNAL SOUND position before powering upthe locomotive. The switch is located on thebottom of the tender frame in the middle ofthe tender.
Although RailSounds is powered by track voltage, the battery is required for uninter-rupted operation and shutdown sequences. Use only alkaline batteries.
Discontinue locomotive power for 10 seconds before changing theRailSounds/Signalsounds ON/OFF switch position.
If RailSounds “drops out” during track power interrupts (direction change), replace the battery.

Transformer operations
With RailSounds, you experience thesounds of real railroading like never
before. Simply put, it’s the most sophisticat-ed, authentic model railroad sound system inthe world.
• Variable chuff rate. YourLocomotive’s speed determines the steamchuff rate.
• MultiWhistle™. Different whistles everytime—a RailSounds exclusive.
• Authentic bell. Press BELL on yourCAB-1 or transformer to begin the effect,again to discontinue. Even the final “hit”is muted like the real thing.
• Reverse unit reset sound. Power
down your track, wait for 3-5 seconds,and listen for the air-release sound—that’s the Locomotive telling you itsLiontech Command reverse unit has justreset to forward operation.
• Shutdown sequence. No other modelrailroad sound system shuts down likeRailSounds. Turn off track power, andafter the air-release reset sound, you havetwo seconds to restart your Locomotive. Ifyou’re done with operations, RailSoundswill commence with an authentic steamlocomotive shutdown sequence about twoseconds after the air-release reset occurs.
Experiencing the range of your locomotive’s RailSounds system
Battery must be installed for shutdown sequence.Note!
Notes on RailSounds
• The volume control is located on the bot-tom of the tender frame and marked witha + and -. Turn the volume set screwclockwise or counter clockwise to adjustthe volume.
• Listen for incidental locomotive soundsduring RailSounds operation. They’reautomatic and, of course, authentic.
• The 9-volt alkaline battery you installed
ensures continuous steam locomotivesounds.
• Longer track-power interruptions(including locomotive derailments)cause RailSounds to shut down afterabout 7 seconds.
• For even more authentic RailSoundseffects, operate in the TrainMasterCommand environment.
Allow the locomotive and tender to set on the track until the shutdownsequence is complete. Removing the tender before shutdown is completemay cause the sound to “loop” and not shut off. If this happens, placeengine and tender back on the track with the tender connected andwait for shutdown sequence to complete, then remove from track ifdesired.

TrainMaster™ Command operationsYour steam locomotive in the TrainMaster™ Command environment
Lionel TrainMaster™ Command is the funand sophisticated model railroad control
system from Lionel. Your steam locomotivefeatures the Liontech Command reverse unit,which acts as both a conventional reverseunit as well as the key to unlocking manyextra features when you operate inCommand mode.
TrainMaster™ Command gives you thepower to operate multiple Command-
equipped locomotives on the same track, atthe same time. It’s the most fun you canhave with electric trains, and it’s incrediblyeasy too! Just follow the directions below andyou’ll be on your way.
To operate in Command, youneed a Command Base and a CAB-1remote. Find them both at your authorizedLionel retailer.
Place your steam locomotive and tender on Lionel orLionel compatible O gauge track.
• Make sure track power is OFF before placing it on track.• Make sure your Lionel Command Base is ON and its communications
wire is connected to the COMMON post on your Lionel transformer or the U on anyof your installed PowerMasters.
• Once positioned on the track, increase track voltage to FULL (onPowerMaster, slide the CMD/CONV switch to CMD).
22 Address your steam locomotive with CAB-1.
• Press ENG and 1 on the numeric keypad of your CAB-1 remote. This commandis sent by CAB-1 to the Command Base, which then translates your command intodigital code. That code is sent around your railroad’s outside rails in the form of adigital “halo.” All Command-equipped Lionels listen to this digital communica-tion, but they do not respond until they hear their own ID number.
• The digital language of TrainMaster Command—and not track power—controlsthe actions of Command-equipped Lionels. Track power is simply like gasoline inthe tank of your car—it gives you the power to go places, but it doesn’t tell youwhere to go or how fast to get there.
• All locomotives come factory-programmed with an ID# of “1.” To change yoursteam locomotive’s ID#, see page 13.

Tuning your steam locomotive’s performance
Reprogramming R2LC circuit boards to restore features
Step 1: Move switch on locomotive fromrun to program.
Step 2: Turn on Command Base.
Step 3: Place locomotive on track, thenturn on power to track.
Step 4: Press “ENG” then input locomo-tive’s ID#. Press “SET”
Step 5: Press “ENG”, then the ID#, “AUX1”,then press 4 for your locomotive.
Step 6: Turn off power to track, wait tenseconds.
Step 7: Remove locomotive from track,move switch from program to run.
Step 8: Place locomotive back on track,turn power on to track.
Step 9: Press “ENG” and ID#, then operateas normal.
Due to the inevitable derailments, static,and the nature of electricity, it is possi-
ble that your R2LC could someday lose itssetup program. The symptoms of this condi-
tion would be unresponsiveness in commandmode. This can be easily remedied by “repro-gramming” your R2LC using the followingsteps.
MOMENTUMSimulate the labored performance of a loco-
motive pulling a heavy load with momentum.Press L, M, or H (located under CAB-1’s remov-able panel) for light, medium, or heavymomentum. The R2LC remembers the settinguntil you change it. For delayed response, useH. For quick response, choose L.
BOOSTING AND BRAKINGUse the BOOST and BRAKE command but-
tons for incremental control of speed and asuperior method for handling grades, stops-and-starts, and more. Plus, using BRAKE inthe Command environment gives you a bonusRailSounds effect—the ultrarealistic sound ofsquealing brakes.
STALLMake your locomotive feel more responsive
by setting a “stall” voltage. Get your locomo-tive moving, then press SET; the locomotivewill stop. The headlight will flash, indicatingit’s in the SET mode. Turn the throttle clock-
wise to get the engine moving, then decreasespeed until the locomotive just stops. Thenpress SET again; the R2LC remembers the stallsetting until you change it. To clear stall, pressSET twice, holding it for one second each time.
HIGH VOLTAGE SETTINGPress SET, headlight will flash. Get your
locomotive moving to the maximum speedyou want it to run, press BOOST. Use this tokeep your locomotive from accidentally beingderailed at high speed.
SOUND QUALITYTo achieve your preferred RailSounds master
volume level, use the volume control diallocated on the bottom of the tender. Turn thedial left or right to adjust the volume to yourliking.
For quick remote-control of volume belowthe master setting—like muting—use theCAB-1 numeric keypad’s volume control.Pressing AUX1 and 4 on the keypad lowersoverall RailSounds output.
These settings will be lost when you assign a new engine ID number.Note!

We recommend that you choose an easy toremember ID# for your engine. Some possi-bilities are part of the engine road number,your age, any two digit number that is notused by another engine. Write the numberon a small piece of tape and put this on thebottom of the tender to aid in remembering.
As your fleet of Command-equippedLionels grows, you’ll want to give your
locomotive a more individualized number.Choose from any between 1 and 99. To makethings easy, use a portion of your locomo-tive’s cab number.
Turn the Command Base ON and place thelocomotive on track. Power up, then set thelocomotive’s reverse unit control switch toPROGRAM (see the illustration). Using CAB-1, press ENG, the locomotive ID# (you selectthe number), then press the SET buttonlocated under CAB-1’s removable panel. Hearthe whistle blow (or see the headlight flash ifRailSounds is off); that’s the R2LC confirm-ing the new ID#. Set the Program/Runswitch to RUN.

Maintaining your locomotive
Help your Lionel steam locomotive lead along and productive life on your rail-
road by maintaining it properly. We recommend you purchase a Lionel
Lubrication and Maintenance Kit (no. 6-62927), available from your Lionel dealer.Two basic rules to keep in mind: never over-lubricate (a small amount will do), andavoid getting grease or oil on the steam loco-motive’s wheels, contact rollers, or yourtrack.
You’ll know your steam locomotiverequires lubrication when visual inspection
reveals dryness on the parts indicated in theillustration. Remove accumulated dirt anddust before lubricating, and always lubricateany locomotive emerging from prolonged stor-age. Also, lightly lubricate the steam locomo-tive’s side rods after each 10 hours of operation.
Lubricating your steam locomotive
Do not lubricate your locomotive’s electricmotor.. It has been pretested and all the nec-essary moving parts have been sufficientlylubricated for life at the factory and shouldrun smoothly for many years to come. If
you have any difficulty in the operation ofyour engine see the Warranty and servicesection at the end of the instruction sheet formore information.
