LIONEL NO. 1464W UNION PACIFIC
"ANNIVERSARY" PASSENGER ALCO SET
Lionel ALCo diesel locomotives are modeled on the 1,500 horsepower general purpose freight
and passenger locomotives built by the American Locomotive Company and used by many
American railroads.
These locomotives are designed to operate on Lionel O27 track, but will run as well on
O-gauge track or the FasTrack track system.
LIONEL "MAGNE-TRACTION"
This locomotive is equipped with "Magne-Traction" which means that its driving wheels are
magnetized by powerful Alnico magnets inserted in the driving axles in order to grip the track
and enable the locomotive to pull heavier loads and climb steeper grades without slipping
on the track. Be careful not to let pins, paperclips, carpet tacks or other small iron objects
come in contact with the locomotive or they will be attracted to the wheels, gears, or axles
and interfere with the action of the locomotive. NOTE: "Magne-Traction" is not effective on
aluminum, brass or other non-magnetic rails. The locomotive also includes two traction tires,
which will improve traction on both magnetic and non-magnetic rails.
