Features of the locomotive

You own a tough, durable locomotive—

the Lionel Hudson steam locomotive.

From the crisp die-cast metal detail and the

authentic decoration on the outside to the

advanced technology and brute power within

the boiler, your steam locomotive is ready for

duty on your model railroad. Experience the

superiority of today’s Lionel.

Transformer operations

Move ‘em out!

Place your locomotive on Lionel or

Lionel-compatible O gauge track.

• With track power OFF, connect the drawbar between the locomotive and tender as

illustrated in Figure 1.

Running your locomotive with a Lionel transformer

Power up your steam locomotive with your transformer.

•Your locomotive is designed to operate on 8-16 volts alternating

current. Virtually all Lionel and Lionel-compatible alternating-current trans-

formers are suitable.

•Do not power your locomotive with direct current (DC). Damage to

sensitive electronic components may occur.

•When you first power up your track, your locomotive’s headlight

will illuminate. At this point, the locomotive is in neutral. When the power is

removed and again applied (by pressing the Direction button on your controller),

the train will move forward. This condition holds true if the engine is being pow-

ered up for the first time or if the engine has been powered down for longer than

five seconds.

• Get your locomotive moving. Press the DIR button on your CAB-1 remote or

Lionel transformer. This advances the Lionel reverse unit to the next operating

state in the repeating sequence: forward, neutral, reverse, and neutral.

• Adjust track voltage until your locomotive moves at your desired speed. To

increase speed, increase track voltage. To decrease speed, reduce voltage. To stop

the locomotive, turn off track power.

• See page 4 for information on locking your locomotive into a sin-

gle operating state.

Add smoke fluid to the locomotive or switch the smoke

generator off.

• See page 9 for more information.

Caution!

Transformer operations

Locking your locomotive into a single operational state

The reverse unit inside your Lionel loco-

motive is an electronic device that acts

like the transmission in your car. When you

apply power to the track, the locomotive

moves in the direction specified by the

reverse unit—or it sits in neutral, awaiting

another power interruption. Power interrup-

tions are the signal that tells the reverse unit

to sequence to the next operational state.

To interrupt power and sequence the loco-

motive’s reverse unit, press the direction con-

trol button or turn the throttle to the OFF

position and then ON again. The reverse unit

alternates between these states: forward, neu-

tral, reverse, and neutral.

Also, the locomotive can be “locked” into a

particular mode of operation by throwing the

reverse unit switch located on the underside

of the frame (see Figure 2). When the switch

is thrown to the OFF position, the locomotive

will be locked in the next mode of operation

in the sequence. For instance, if the locomo-

tive is moving forward, then is stopped and

the switch is thrown back, the locomotive

will be “locked” in neutral. If the switch is

thrown to the OFF position while the locomo-

tive is under power, the locomotive will

remain in the mode it was in when the

switch was thrown. The controller direction

button will then have no affect on the direc-

tion of the locomotive.

Should the locomotive sit without power

for a short period of time, the reverse unit

will automatically reset and start in the for-

ward direction when the transformer is

turned on, regardless of the reverse unit

switch position. If the switch is in the OFF

position, the locomotive will start in the for-

ward direction and be “locked” there.

Rear of locomotive

Transformer operations

The rear of your Lionel locomotive’s ten-

der is equipped with an operating mag-

netic knuckle coupler, a revolutionary design

first introduced by Lionel in 1945. These

magnetic couplers react to the magnetic field

generated by a Lionel Remote-Control Track

section (available separately).

Place your locomotive’s coupler trigger

disc over the central coil of a Remote-Control

Track section and press UNCOUPLE on the

controller. The magnetic field pulls the disc

downward, and the knuckle opens.

One operating technique favored by Lionel

railroaders is the “moving uncouple.” Press

the UNCOUPLE button as the locomotive

passes over a Remote-Control Track section.

The magnetic field will open the coupler; the

consist remains behind as the locomotive

moves on. But be careful—the speed of a

newly uncoupled and moving locomotive can

increase dramatically.

Note!

To operate the bell and whistle sounds

when operating your locomotive with

conventional transformers, you’ll need to

install a Lionel no. 610-5906-001 Sound

Activation Button (available separately).

Connect the button(s) as shown below.

All track power must feed through

the Sound Activation Button. Do

not bypass the button.

With Conventional RailSounds, you

experience the sounds of real railroad-

ing like never before. Simply put, it’s the

most sophisticated, authentic model railroad

sound system in the world.

Be sure to install a 9-volt alkaline battery

in the tender as illustrated in Figure 4. This

ensures interruption-free operation of the

RailSounds sound system.

Begin by removing the tender body to

access the battery clip. Remove the three ten-

der body mounting screws and lift the body

shell away. Refer to Figure 4 for the location

of these screws. Snap the battery into the har-

ness, then lower the battery into the holder.

Finish the battery installation by replacing

the tender body and attaching with the three

screws.

Features of your locomotive’s RailSounds sound system

Whistle. Press the WHISTLE button on your

controller and your locomotive’s whistle will

sound as long as the button is pressed.

Authentic bell. Press the BELL button on

your controller to start ringing the bell; press

the button again to discontinue the ringing.

Even the final “hit” is muted—just like the

real thing!

Train brakes. Quickly slow down from a

medium speed, and you will hear authentic

braking sounds.

Wheel flange squeal. Depending on your

track layout, you may hear the brake sounds

to simulate the sound of wheel flanges

against the rails when you enter a curve.

Shutdown sequence. When you turn off

track power, you will hear an air release

sound. You have two seconds to power up

your locomotive. If you don’t, RailSounds

will commence with an authentic steam

locomotive shutdown sequence.

A 9-volt alkaline battery must be

installed for your locomotive to

play the shutdown sequence.

Variable chuff rate. The speed of your

locomotive determines the rate of steam

chuffing.

TowerCom announcements. TowerCom

features several “Stand by” and “Clear for

departure” messages from the dispatcher

with responses from the engineer. Each time

TowerCom is triggered, a random message

will be played.

When the train is stopped, a short whistle

blast triggers the first message. If the train

has been stopped for less than 15 seconds, a

“Stand by” message is played. If the train

has been stopped for more than 15 seconds, a

“Clear for departure” message will play. The

15-second interval is marked by the first time

a CrewTalk message plays automatically after

the locomotive has stopped.

CrewTalk communications. These

“call” and “response” radio messages occur

automatically after the train has stopped. You

will hear them at random intervals, ranging

from thirty seconds to three minutes.

Note!

Notes on Conventional RailSounds

• The volume control knob is located on

the underside of the tender. Refer to

Figure 4. Turn the volume set screw

clockwise or counter-clockwise to adjust

the volume.

• Listen for incidental locomotive sounds

during RailSounds operation. They’re

automatic and, of course, authentic.

• The 9-volt alkaline battery you installed

ensures continuous steam locomotive

sounds. (Use alkaline batteries only.)

• Longer track-power interruptions

(including locomotive derailments)

cause RailSounds to shut down after

about 7 seconds.

Your locomotive’s headlight is illuminat-

ed by one lamp. During the course of

normal operation, the lamp may require

replacement.

Carefully remove the three cab screws (see

page 10 for their locations). Set the engine

on its side and carefully pull the front of the

frame away from the cab. Be careful you do

not bend the drawbar that connects the

engine to the tender. The replacement lamp

(600-2314-300) is available from your

Authorized Lionel Service Center or Lionel

Service. See the Lionel Service section on

page 12 for more information. Remove the

expired lamp by unscrewing it and install the

replacement lamp. Reinstall the cab and the

three screws taking care to not pinch any

wires during reassembly.

Check to be sure the smoke stack is aligned

with the smoke generator.

Lamp

Part No. 600-2314-300

Maintaining your locomotive

Adding fluid to your locomotive’s sw

Your locomotive is equipped with a

smoke generator that produces safe,

clean, white smoke during operation.

The smoke generator requires the periodic

addition of Lionel smoke fluid in order to

function. Pierce the tube end with a pin, then

add four to eight drops of fluid directly into

the locomotive’s stack. Smoke production

will commence momentarily, faster if you

run your locomotive at speed. When smoke

production wanes, add more fluid (four to

eight drops).

If you prefer smoke-free locomotive opera-

tion, there is a switch located on the bottom of

the engine under the cab (see page 4 for its

location). Move the switch to the OFF position

and your locomotive will stop smoking.

When the smoke unit is on always keep a

small amount of smoke fluid in the locomo-

tive’s smoke generator; the generator’s ele-

ment can become damaged if operated with-

out fluid. Smoke production is greater at

higher voltages and when the locomotive is

pulling a heavy load or long consist.

Maintaining your locomotive

Help your Lionel steam locomotive lead a

long and productive life on your rail-

road by maintaining it properly. We recom-

mend that you purchase a Lionel Lubrication

and Maintenance Kit (no. 6-62927), avail-

able from your Lionel dealer. Two basic rules

to keep in mind: never over-lubricate (a

small amount will do), and avoid getting

grease or oil on the steam locomotive’s

wheels, contact rollers, or your track.

You’ll know your steam locomotive

requires lubrication when visual inspection

reveals dryness on the parts indicated in the

illustration. Remove accumulated dirt and

dust before lubricating, and always lubricate

any locomotive emerging from prolonged

storage. Also, lightly lubricate the steam

locomotive’s side rods after every 10 hours of

operation.
