MTH E-4 Steam Engine Operating Manual
an air release sound, followed approximately 2 seconds later by an Arrival
Announcement. Following this arrival announcement, the sounds of doors
opening and the conductor saying “Watch your step” is heard. At this point,
various Passenger Station sounds can be heard, including passenger
footsteps, muffled voices, baggage being moved about and whistling for a
taxi. Additionally, several conductor highlights will be heard in the
foreground.
Event 2: Interrupt the transformer throttle
again to cycle the engine from neutral into
reverse. In order to have the engine leave the
yard in the same direction it entered
Proto-Sound® disables the motors in this
reverse state to prevent the engine from
running backwards. PFA confirms reverse is
entered by playing the conductor saying
“Baggage to the right/left.” Once this
highlight is played, the Passenger Station sounds heard in Event 1 will
continue to play.
Event 3: Interrupt the transformer throttle again to cycle the engine from
reverse back to neutral. PFA confirms that the engine is now in neutral by
sounding two quick air releases. This is followed approximately two
seconds later by a Boarding Announcement message and continued
Passenger Station sounds. Conductor highlights, such as “Welcome
aboard” and “Tickets please” will play randomly.
Event 4: Interrupt the transformer throttle again to complete the PFA
feature and cycle the engine into forward. PFA confirms it has entered
forward by playing the conductor’s call
“All Aboard!” and the sound of the
passenger car door closing. Within two
seconds, the whistle will sound two short
blasts (three if entering reverse), and the
bell will begin to chime. After a few
chimes of the bell, the engine will begin
moving in forward with the bell continuing
to ring. A few seconds later, the bell will
turn off, and the engine will resume normal
operation. Note: When entering Event 4, it is important to set the
transformer throttle at a high enough setting that the engine will begin to
move when the motors are activated. However, the throttle should not be
too high for the engine to maintain a safe operating speed.
