DC Locomotive Constant Lighting
Posted by jdmilliman on Sunday, March 23, 2008 8:01 PM

I have several older locos that I would like to add DC constant light to.  Does anyone have any information as how that is done.  I heard that there was a schematic that used several diodes to have the loco lighting on at all times before the engine would move.

 Any help is appreciated.

Thanks, John  Forsyth,IL

If you ever fall over in public, pick yourself up and say “sorry it’s been a while since I inhabited a body.” And just walk away.
