ach Heavyweight Passenger Car features two operating couplers. Figure 1 illustrates the

location of the uncoupling mechanisms on your cars. To open the couplers, position the
truck on a Remote-Control Track section (available separately, 6-65530 for O gauge; 6-12746
or 6-65149 for O-27 gauge; or 6-12020 for FasTrack layouts) so that the center pair of wheels
is directly above the magnetic disk. Once the car is in place, press UNCOUPLE on the track
controller to activate the magnet, releasing the coupler. To open the couplers by hand, slide
the uncoupling tab toward the truck. Do not press down on the uncoupling tab.
