LIonel 1506L windup loco question
Posted by teledoc on Tuesday, December 8, 2015 1:14 PM

This is for anyone who might have one of these little gems in their inventory.  Because it is Tinplate/Prewar and a windup, there is very little information to be found on this item.  I am curious about the battery that would have been used, for the headlamp, and how it would be held in.  I have the chance to get one, but would like to know more about the battery issue.

All you Tinplate guys, help me out.

I don't have one, but I recall that AF put the battery in the tender for wind ups with tenders.
