dear fellow members,
as some of you know that on trainbuddy.com you can buy an ho gauge thomas that is decoded and has lights installed:Dcan a local hobby shop install them ???

Oh yes, I just heard about those. ;)  In fact I called them this morning.  They can install lights for Bachmann Thomas, James, Percy, and Toby! ;D  When I have the money (From my recent summer job) I can buy them, I am interested in having both versions of all four models ;)

Sorry for the double post but I ordered all four of the models two days ago :D

What I think would be neat is if the buffer light could be selectable to white or green with DCC.  Probably would take a white LED with red, blue, and green chips.  (I got in a train post with red / white / blue on the 4th of July!  Yeah!)

White meant it was a passenger train, and  green a cattle or goods train.

Basis: a downloaded book from Google Books: Rules_and_Regulations_for _the_conduct_ (of the traffic and the guidance of officers and the men in the service of the South Staffordshire Railway).  It was published circa 1860.

In Sodor, not being perfect is OK as long as your heart is in the right place.
