Ho folks, Is it possible to add your own lighting to the Bachmann 37/0, as in is there access for light to get through to the dots on the headcode boxes for adding lignting. I have'nt got round to buying one yet so I thought I would ask the question here.
Cheers,
Rob.
If it's anything like the deltic then no - it will be white dots printed on a piece of black plastic. On that model, the black plastic is an insert into the transparent headcode box. On the deltic at least, it is possible to replace the "domino" with a new piece of plastic suitably drilled and backed with paper or translucent plastic. Again, if it's like the deltic, you will need to mask the inside edges of the headcode box so that light is only visible through the dots. I used blu-tac which is nicely opaque and also holds the new domino in place...
