non-Command environment, you must rely
on a piece of rolling stock equipped with
Lionel magnetic couplers coupled directly to
the ElectroCoupler. The magnetic coupler on
the rolling stock will then react to the
magnetic field generated by a Lionel
Remote-Control Track section (available
separately, 6-65530 for O gauge, 6-65149 or
6-12746 for O-27 gauge). Place your rolling
stock's coupler "trigger disc" over the central
coil of a Remote-Control Track section and
press UNCOUPLE on the controller. The
magnetic field pulls the disc downward, and
the coupler opens.
