Installation with Railsounds 2.5
If you are installing the LCRU in conjunction with a Railsounds 2.5 board, please review the
mounting instructions included with the Railsounds kit. After you have completed the mechanical
installation of the two boards, return to the next section of this manual for instructions on
how to complete the electrical connections.

In the following steps, all wires are to be removed by unsoldering them from their connections.
Do not cut any wires unless you are instructed to do so.

The variety of engine types produced by Lionel over the years eliminate the possibility of
describing a single mounting procedure that will apply to every case. Examine the layout of
your engine carefully and read the following section before deciding on the best mounting method
for the circuit board.
Method A
This method works best when there is a sufficiently large, flat area on the chassis to which the
board can be easily attached with adhesive foam tape. This method should work with most engines
having a stamped sheet metal chassis. It is also the preferred method for mounting the board
within the fuel tank of a die cast chassis such as the F3.
1. Remove the backing from two of the foam tape strips, and attach them side by side to the
bottom of the LCRU circuit board as shown in the picture below.
2. Using a razor blade or Exacto knife, trim approximately 1/4" from the remaining piece of
tape, and apply it to the back of the board.

3. Make sure that the intended circuit board mounting area is clean and oil-free.
