How Add Lighting to Model Train Passenger Cars
- 1). Purchase a lighting kit that is the appropriate size for your type of model passenger car.
- 2). Remove the lighting kit from the packaging and insert the proper batteries. The batteries are held in place by clips and the flat sides should be facing outwards towards you.
- 3). Run the wand over the lighting board to see that it is functioning properly. After you have tested it, put two pieces of transparent tape on either end of the LED lights to make the board a bit more secure.
- 4). Remove the shell of the passenger car from the roof using your fingernail. It should pry off easily.
- 5). Set the lighting board on top of the seating area. The batteries should be nearest the back of the passenger car, near the washroom.
- 6). Reinstall the roof by pushing it back into place. Test the lighting again by running the wand over the top of the car.
