K-Line Allegheny C&O

I had that engine before I gave it away after I went scale.  Kline produced generic steam and diesel manuals. The Allegheny was TMCC.  I got a cruise control kit from them for that and my Hudson; however, I did not install the kits.  The 4 Kline scale engines I kept (Rdg Tank, NYC Hudson, B&O Light Pacific, and RDG AA F3s) I had converted to Proto 2. 

I have the K-Line Allegheny and Big Boy.  The manuals between the two is identical.  It was just a generic TMCC steam locomotive manual.  So if you found one of the forum (It might even be one I posted.), it's the same as what came with the locomotive.  If you really need, I can dig out the box and take photos.

My locomotive on the other hand is in a million parts.  I took it all apart with the intent to add ERR cruise, LED lighting, John's super smoker, and such.  Never got there...

The easiest way to find out is place it on a TMCC equipped layout and power it up.  If it has TMCC it won't move until addressed.  The other way I think would be to turn it over and look for the PGM/RUN switch.  

I will try it with my legacy controller. I also have scale Lionel S2 with legacy. No chuff chuff just steam turbine sounds. It sounds weird but it is an awesome engine. It is over 28" long.

Well - it's a steam turbine, which is why it sounds like a...turbine. No chuff is possible, as there are no cylinders and pistons. The sounds are not "weird". This loco (the real one) is easy to look up on the InterWeb, y'know.

=========== 

The K-line Allegheny came as a conventional and as a command (TMCC) locomotive, as I recall. I have TMCC version, with cruise. Nice "little" (they are 1:58, not 1:48, scale) engines.

If there is no RUN/PGM switch, it's Conventional.

Did it come with box? That would help with ID of features as they were marked on box. G

If it has sound than it ha TMCC Look for a program/run switch.

The 1601 was the TMCC version.  1603 was the conventional version.

Thanks for all the help. I  printed the PDF file. That worked perfectly for this engine. Can't really make out the talk/radio chatter. No big deal. It runs on the TMCC part of the Legacy.  It is an awesome addition to my steam engines. I have a few scale (MTH  Premier and Lionel Legacy) engines in my collection.

That's because there isn't anything to make out.  It's mostly just gibberish. Only "You're clear to take the main." is actual words.

Well, since it's the cab talk that's garbled, I wouldn't think they would be saying that.  There are several versions of the garbled talk as well.

If they made the cab chatter with understandable actual conversation, they likely wouldn't be suited for mixed company.
