LEGACY RailSounds sound system operations

Installing the battery

A
lthough the LEGACY RailSounds sound system is powered through the track, we
recommend that you install a nine-volt alkaline battery in the locomotive to prevent
the sound system from shutting down during track power interruptions (for example,
at a switch or a dirty section of track). Follow these steps and see below as you install
the battery.
If the RailSounds sound system turns off during interruptions in track power,
Note!
you may need to replace the battery.
1. Lift the radiator roof hatch off the rear of the locomotive body by lifting up at the rear
and pulling back. See Figure 2 page 10.
2. Remove the protective cover from the battery harness.
3. Snap the battery harness onto the nine-volt alkaline battery's terminals.
4. Slide the battery into the battery holder.
5. Replace the radiator roof hatch on the body by inserting the tab at the front of the
radiator fan housing and placing the rear on the magnets. See Figure 2 page 10.
