Here is a small horn board, but you need to supply a speaker.

Used is how I got it but it looks stock. Thanks. Grain of wheat ordered. Any idea if I can put a horn in here while I’m in there?

Indeed every reference to that bulb number shows a screw base bulb.

It may be possible you have a locomotive where the original screw base bulb was replaced with the grain-of-wheat bulb.

Did you get the loco in a sealed box, or was it used?

Here are 12-16 volt grain-of-wheat bulbs.

Thanks, do you know where I can source one?  And when I goggle that part number I get a picture that looks like a screw type bulb?  Peep Figure 7:

Title: Headlight replacement?
Post by: undercover on December 27, 2020, 11:51:31 am
Is it possible to replace the headlight in this unit? It has been intermittent this Christmas and now it’s totally out. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20201227/0f2b65f53c9ffc5b0a41f7024eb2c15a.jpg)

And where can I source one from?  Also does the circuit board on the interior of the engine simply glue to the inside via some foam?  Seems as if I rip it off how do I put it back correctly?  Thanks on advance
