ongratulations on your purchase of the Lionel Mainline Color Position Signal. Place the
signal next to the track on your Lionel railroad, and passing trains will automatically
cause the lights to change from green to red. Once the train has cleared the signal, the lights
will change to yellow to indicate that a train is moving through the block.
The 153C Contactor was designed for use with traditional O and O-27 gauge track
only. To activate the signal on a FasTrack layout, we recommend using the 153IR
Controller (available separately, 6-14111) or O Gauge Transition sections (available
separately, 6-12040) to connect with traditional O gauge track.
