Hello ALL --
I have started installing bright white-florescent colored LED lights in my O-Scale R-Type Cars -- starting with my O-Scale 2-RAIL IRT R-21 class subway cars. these lights ( 12 per car, in a strip on the roof interior of connected groups of 3 LEDS ) -- removing the original very dim MTH provided tiny incandescent light bulbs. Post war NYC Transit R-Type cars did NOT have "incandescent lamp" lighting as such ! These LEDS (60 lights over a 5 car train) take a tiny fraction of voltage to light, meaning more power for the traction motors, compared to the significant current-absorbing older MTH provided
The results are fantastic -- and here are photos BELOW of these cars on my EL Line !
