N scale VO1000 decoder

Mar 17, 2007 3 Replies

Am I correct in understanding that the PnP decoder from TCS for the N scale Atlas VO1000 does NOT have lighting attached to the decoder board? Am I to be soldering to the decoder? Kind of shoots the whole plug n play thing, no? Please advise if you are able.

Thanx for the link Jon, but I have seen these photos and am unclear as to the inclusion or lack thereof concerning the mention of 'sunny white surface mount leds'.

Look on the far left side of the decoder. The yellow thingie is a smd led. I suspect the one for the cab light is mounted under the board where it sticks under the cab. In addition, the description says:"Comes with sunny white surface mount LED'S for realistic front and rear lights."

Its a pretty good bet that the lights are as pnp as the rest of the decoder.
