Power your locomotive with an alternating-current (50-60Hz AC) transformer only.  

 

 

Powering your locomotive with a direct-current (DC) transformer, or in excess of   

 

 

19 volts AC, may result in damage to sensitive electronic components.

 

Your locomotive requires Lionel or Lionel-compatible O-42 or larger track curves.

1.  Turn off track power, and then plug in the 

LEGACY Base and connect it to the track.

2.  Place your locomotive and tender on the track 

and connect the drawbar as shown in Figure 1.

3.  Increase track power voltage to full power 

(no more than 19 volts AC). 

If a circuit breaker 

trips when you turn on the Lionel power supply, check 
the wheels of your locomotive to make sure they are all 
securely on the track. Check to make sure the track is free 
of all metals that may cause a short circuit. 

4.  As illustrated in Figure 2, press ENG and 1 

(or your selected ENG ID#) to address the 
locomotive with your LEGACY CAB-2 Remote 
Controller.

5.  Press the Start Up key on your LEGACY CAB-2 

Remote, shown in Figure 3. Then, throttle up 
and move 'em out! 

Your engine sound will start up, 

and the locomotive-specific touch screen buttons will 
populate the remote. For more information on operating 
your locomotive with the LEGACY system, please refer 
to the LEGACY section of this manual. Additional 
information is also found in the LEGACY System Manual, 
available online at

F

or the finest operating experience, your locomotive is fully 
compatible with the LEGACY Control System. To operate 

in LEGACY mode, you need a LEGACY Command Base and 
LEGACY CAB-2 Remote Controller (6-14295). 

Your commands are sent by the CAB-2 Remote Controller 

to the Command Base, which sends a digital code through 
the rails to your locomotive. Your locomotive will not respond 
until it recognizes its unique ID#, so you can operate multiple 
Command-equipped locomotives on the same track at the 
same time.
