LEGACY RailSounds sound system operations
Y
our locomotive is equipped with the Lionel LEGACY RailSounds sound system, the most
realistic model railroad sound system in the world. The LEGACY RailSounds sound system
brings the sounds of the railroad to your layout through high quality sound recordings of real
locomotives.
When you operate your locomotive in the conventional environment, you get realistic
chuffing sounds, which automatically increase through 15 levels as the speed of the
locomotive increases. You can sound the locomotive's whistle or activate the ringing of the
bell. When you are through with operations and power down the track, your locomotive's
LEGACY RailSounds sound system starts a realistic steam shutdown sequence (a nine-volt
battery is required for the operation of the LEGACY RailSounds sound system when the track is
powered down).
When you operate your locomotive in the TrainMaster Command Control environment, you
gain additional control of the LEGACY RailSounds sound system, including the whistle and
bell sounds. The locomotive's chuffing sounds automatically increase, but you can also set a
particular chuff intensity level using your CAB-1 Remote Controller. In the Command Control
environment, the release of the ElectroCoupler is accompanied by a coupler release sound.
Use the BRAKE button, and listen for the sound of squealing metal. You can also trigger
CrewTalk dialog and TowerCom announcements, which simulate the interaction between the
locomotive crew and the dispatcher. Whenever you choose to shutdown your locomotive, the
realistic shutdown sequence commences (a nine-volt battery is required for the operation of
the LEGACY RailSounds sound system when the track is powered down).
Operating your locomotive with the LEGACY Control system provides you control of all
the features mentioned above as well as access to the new quilling whistle and single hit bell
sounds.
