Your locomotive remembers its ID# forever;
change it any time with these steps
We recommend that you choose
an easy to remember ID# for your
engine. Some possibilities are
part of the engine road number,
your age, any two digit number
that is not used by another
engine. Write the number on a
small piece of tape and put this
on the bottom of the tender to aid
in remembering.
RUN

When you've finished programming the ID#, set the switch
to RUN.

A s your fleet of Command-
equipped Lionels grows, you'll
want to give your locomotive a
more individualized number.
Choose from any between 1 and
99. To make things easy, use a part
of your locomotive's cab number.
Turn the Command Base ON,
set the locomotive's reverse unit
control switch to PROGRAM and
place the locomotive on track.
Power up (see the illustration).
Using CAB-1, press ENG, the new
locomotive ID#, then press the SET
button located under CAB-1's
removable panel. Hear the whistle
blow (or see the headlight flash if
RailSounds is off); that's the R2LC
confirming the new ID#. Set the
reverse unit control switch to RUN.
Your locomotive is ready for opera-
tions with its all-new ID#.
