Railsounds Sound System Operations - Lionel Keystone Super Freight Owner's Manual

RailSounds sound system operations

RailSounds sound system operations
Y our locomotive is equipped with the Lionel RailSounds sound system, the most realistic
model railroad sound system in the world. The RailSounds sound system brings the
sounds of the railroad to your layout through high quality digital samples of real locomotives.
When you operate your locomotive in the conventional environment, you get realistic
chuffing sounds, which automatically increase through four levels as the speed of the locomo-
tive 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 RailSounds
sound system starts a realistic steam shutdown sequence (a nine-volt alkaline battery is
required, see page 14).
When you operate your locomotive in the TrainMaster Command Control environment, you
get full control of the RailSounds sound system, including the whistle and bell sounds. The
locomotive's chuffing sounds automatically increase. 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 communica-
tion and TowerCom announcements, which simulate the interaction between the locomotive
crew and the dispatcher. Whenever you choose to shutdown your locomotive, the realistic shut-
down sequence commences (a nine-volt alkaline battery is required, see page 14).
