HO Scale Lighting

Image being able to light and remotely control all of you HO scale passenger cars while they are moving down the rails.  Our LED lighting board all have DCC decoder built in!  You can set the brightness of both the main and the auxiliary rear red LEDs.  The rear red LEDs can be set to steady ON or Blink.  To control the entire train of passenger cars, set all the boards to the same address.  The just pressing F0 or the LIGHT button on your controller.  Our boards have stay alive capacitors and flicker reduction in the circuits.  Connect only two wires to the wheel pickup.  No wheel pick ups?  We invented the best “floating” wheel-pickup system in the market. They don’t pinch the axles or the wheels.

If you want to install the boards yourself it’s really quite easy.  We have some instructional videos on our HOW TO pages.  The basic steps begin with soldering a couple of lead wires (we provide) to either the existing truck pickup or to the brass strips (“floating pickups”).  Next drill a small hole though the undercarriage and run the wires up to the main cabin.  Solder those two wires to the two tabs on the LED light board.  Then use double stick tape to fasten the board to the roof of the car.  That’s it! The board size is designed to fit perfectly for your size car.  We offer two standard lengths of 264 mm and 192 mm.  We also use our caboose board form time to time to work in Dome cars where our Dome LED Lighting Board can be used.
