installation of decoders (see Fac-
tory Service).
CAUTION! If this model is equip-
ped with Multi-Train System deco-
ders, do not operate this model
with catenary power. Operate
decoder equipped locos with track

Lighting
This model has automatic direc-
tional lanterns on both ends of the
loco. Depending on the direction
of travel, all three lights shine on
the "front" and one shines on the
"back." The cab is also illumina-
ted. A 5-volt voltage stabilization
circuit provides constant power to
the lights, even when the loco is
moving slowly.
This model has "flat" multi-purpo-
se
sockets,
covers, on both ends of the loco
(Fig. 3). These sockets can be
used to provide track power to
cars with lighting and sound elec-
tronics. If your cars have the older,
"round" lighting connectors, use
the Light Socket Adapter (68334).

lity, operate this model with LGB
