Hi Larry, <br />Back in 1991 I authored an article in Model Railroader entitled "Diode Lighting Made Easy". This article has since been reprinted and is included in the Kalmbach book "Realistic Animation, Lighting & Sound" which should be still available. If you are planning to stay with regular DC, diode lighting will give you the constant brightness headlight you desire. Of course, if you are planning to convert to DCC, the decoder will provide it for you. <br />Bill
