our locomotive is illuminated by several LEDs that are expected to last for the life of the
locomotive. The LED’s are not user serviceable. If service is required, we recommend that
you have your locomotive serviced at a Lionel Factory Trained Authorized Service Station.

If the locomotive is powered up and the lights are not on, check that the
AUX2
command was not used to turn the lamps off.
Note!

our locomotive is equipped with traction tires. This means that four of the drive wheels
are fitted with rubber traction tires to enhance tractive effort so your locomotive can pull
many cars at once.
Lionel has provided extra traction tires to replace the installed traction tires if they ever wear
out. The traction tires are replaced by unscrewing the drive rod screws using the supplied
wrench. See Figure 13. Slip off the old traction tire and remove it from under the drive rod.
Place the new traction tire (Lionel part no. 6000242206) on the wheel and re-tighten the drive
rod screw.
