True2scaleTrain modeling components
Each N scale traffic light post contains
a red, a yellow and a green LED light. About 10 inches of wire are
provided to connect the light post to a nearby Traffic
Light controller. Current limiting resistors are provided at the ends of
the wires to prevent burnout of the LEDs.
To install, simply drill a 5/64 hole in the layout and drop the resistors and leads through that hole, then set the base of the post into the hole. A dab of glue can be used, but is seldom really necessary.
Note; Care must be exercised when handling and installing the unit. The wires are transformer wires with a thin coat of varnish to insulate them from one another. If the wires were to be dragged across a sharp edge, the varnish can be scratched which might ultimately result in a short circuit and a malfunction.
