and whistling for a taxi. Additionally, several conductor highlights will be
heard in the foreground.
Event 2: Interrupt the transformer throttle
again to cycle the engine from neutral into
reverse. In order to have the engine leave
the yard in the same direction it entered
Proto-Sound® disables the motors in this
reverse state to prevent the engine from
running backwards. PFA confirms reverse
is entered by playing the conductor saying
"Baggage to the right/left." Once this
highlight is played, the Passenger Station sounds heard in Event 1 will
continue to play.
Event 3: Interrupt the transformer throttle
again to cycle the engine from reverse back
to neutral. PFA confirms that the engine is
now in neutral by sounding two quick air
releases. This is followed approximately
two seconds later by a Boarding
Announcement message and continued
Passenger Station sounds. Conductor
highlights, such as "Welcome aboard" and "Tickets please" will play
randomly.
Event 4: Interrupt the transformer throttle again to complete the PFA
feature and cycle the engine into forward. PFA confirms it has entered
forward by playing the conductor's call "All
Aboard!" and the sound of the passenger car
door closing. Within two seconds, the
whistle will sound two short blasts (three if
entering reverse), and the bell will begin to
chime. After a few chimes of the bell, the
engine will begin moving in forward with the
bell continuing to ring. A few seconds later,
the bell will turn off, and the engine will
resume normal operation. Note: When entering Event 4, it is important to
set the transformer throttle at a high enough setting that the engine will
begin to move when the motors are activated. However, the throttle
should not be too high for the engine to maintain a safe operating speed.
