Quick Start

Power your locomotive with an alternating-current (50-60Hz AC) transformer only.
Note!
Powering your locomotive with a direct-current (DC) transformer, or in excess of 19
volts AC, may result in damage to sensitive electronic components.

LEGACY Control operations

Transformer operations

1. Turn off track power.
2. Place your locomotive on Lionel or Lionel-compatible O-54 or larger track and connect
the drawbar between the locomotive and tender as illustrated in Figure 1.
3. Power your locomotive at 12-18 volts with your alternating current (AC)
transformer.
4. Wait three to eight seconds until the locomotive's headlight illuminates and the
LEGACY RailSounds sound system starts up.
5. Move 'em out! Press the DIRECTION button on your controller, then throttle up.
For conventional operation there must not be a powered up Command Base
