First lighted accessory/building

Hi,

I'm new to model trains and this group was so helpful with my first question I thought I'd give it another shot. I just bought a little train station off of ebay and it's a lighted building. When I opened the box, I found that the station has a green wire that has bare copper ends. How would I connect this to a Bachman train set that uses the black EZ rails? I'd appreciate any advice you can give.

Your power pack should have a couple of terminals marked "ACC" or Accessories. Hook it up there.

The new power packs only alow for a plug in. I know the ones that came with the older sets have those screws. I suppose I need to get one of those instead right?

Thanks,
