The track outputs will deliver all of this power to the track when no accessories are connected to the Transformer. Keep in mind that connected accessories borrow some of this power.
Figure 6. Drawbar connection Power up your locomotive with your transformer. Your locomotive is designed to operate on 7-15 volts alternating cur- rent. Virtually all Lionel and Lionel-compatible alternating-current transformers are suitable. Note! Do not power your locomotive with direct current (DC) transformers.
Locomotive operation Reverse unit procedure he electronic reverse unit inside your Lionel locomotive acts like the transmission in a car. When you apply power to the track, the locomotive moves in the direction specified by the reverse unit—or it sits in neutral, awaiting another power interruption. Power interruptions are the signal that tells the reverse unit to sequence to the next operational state.
