Congratulations!
ongratulations on your purchase of the Lionel Thomas & Friends™ Ready-To-Run Remote Control
Train Set!
This set includes everything you need to run your train, including a generous FasTrack loop that
assembles in a flash. The power adapter plugs into the wall, and then connects directly to a special track
section. Thomas is controlled using his very own blue Lionel remote. Go forward, reverse, or stop. Sound
the whistle or bell — or have Sir Topham Hatt announce “All aboard!” at the press of a button. Thomas’
moving eyes ensure that your journey on everyone’s #1 engine is a safe one, and the removable roofs of
Annie and Clarabel allow you to load and unload your passengers.
Use this Owner’s Manual to learn how to set up, operate, and maintain your train set for years of reliable operation.
Parents! The wall-pack power supply included with this set should be
periodically examined for conditions that may result in the risk of
fire, electric shock, or injury to persons (such as damage to the
output cord, blades, housing, or other parts). In the event that such
conditions exist, the wall-pack power supply should not be used
until properly repaired.

• The wall-pack power supply is intended to be used indoors. Do not use this device if water is
present. Serious or fatal injuries may result.
• Use the wall-pack power supply only for its intended purpose.
• The wall-pack power supply was meant to operate on 120-240 volt AC, 50/60-Hertz power. Do not

• Never insert objects into the ventilation slots on this product. Damage to sensitive
electronic components can result.
Creating your layout
Building your Lionel layout
our set comes with eight curved sections, one 10" straight section, and one wall-pack terminal
section of track. Figure 1 shows the oval layout that you can build with these track sections.
You may choose to add more FasTrack track sections to create an endless number of exciting track
arrangements for more fun, action, and variety.
Figure 1. Track layout
Creating your layout
Joining the FasTrack track sections
asTrack track sections join together easily. With interlocking roadbed sections and large rail tabs,
the track fits together securely so you always have good electrical contact. Take a look at Figure 2
to see how to join the track sections.
1. Line up your two sections of track.
2. Insert the rail tabs into the openings at the ends of the corresponding rails.
3. Press the sections together until the interlocking roadbed snaps into place.

Running your train
Running your train set
With track power unplugged, place your train set on the track.
Plug in your wall-pack power supply and switch on the remote.
Refer to the following section for information on coupling the cars.
Your locomotive is designed to operate on 18 VDC or VAC. You may choose
to operate the train set using the wall-pack power supply, or you may run the locomotive
on a layout powered by virtually any Lionel and Lionel-compatible alternating-current
transformer.
Note!
Your locomotive is compatible with most direct-current (DC) and alternatingcurrent (AC) transformers.
Move ‘em out!
Use your remote to run your train. You can adjust the speed in forward or reverse,
blow the whistle, sound the bell, or trigger an announcement. Refer to page 12 for complete
details.
Note! If your remote control is switched Off while the locomotive is still running, the locomotive will automatically come to a stop in 10 minutes.
To restart the locomotive, simply unplug the power cord at the terminal
section for a few moments, and then restore power to cycle the locomotive
back to normal operation. If you are done operating your trains, be sure to
unplug the wall-pack power supply from the outlet.
Unplug the wall-pack power supply when you are done running
your trains.
Switch the remote control off to conserve the batteries.

Maintaining and servicing your set
Lubricating your locomotive
elp your steam locomotive lead a long and productive life on your railroad by maintaining it properly.
We recommend that you purchase a Lionel Lubrication and Maintenance Kit (6-62927),
available 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 locomotive’s wheels, contact rollers, or your track.
You’ll know your locomotive requires lubrication when visual inspection reveals dryness on the
parts indicated in Figure 10. Remove accumulated dirt and dust before lubricating, and always lubricate any locomotive emerging from prolonged storage.

marked) with Lionel oil
