My new 44 ton has 12 volt light bulbs. No LEDs. Here is a photo of the capacitors that should be clipped.

I removed the inductors for clearence since I am installing a MDC Climax shell over the top. Need room for the Micro-Tsunami decoder and speaker. You can leave the inductors in.

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.
