Just like you'd think: wire from Fixed Voltage post on transformer - to switch - to #1 Post on O-T-C.  Car gets ground through wheels.

Connecting the OTC lockons and the wiring is what I am after.  That is not part of the repair and maintenance page.  I cannot read those wiring diagrams .

I have that.  I am looking for the directions for the operation of the car.

They describe the setup you need to use it, after that it's just pushing the button to sequence the unloading, right?

O-T-C Contactor plus #90 Button.  Works the same as the Barrel and Cattle cars.

Does anyone have an instruction sheet for this car?  I know I need 2 OTC lockons and a #90 controller but I need the instructions for set up via e mail or scan.  Thanks in advance.
