Prewar Lionel Trains 1900-1942 / Wiring diagram for early Lionel #53 0-4-0 circa 1915
« on: January 03, 2018, 07:11:37 pm »
Any resources available for  early Lionel wiring diagrams? I have a NY Central #53 0-4-0 Switcher. I need to know how the front headlight is connected. Mine had no wiring, just the light housing.  --TIA

Mine is from the early 1900s, perhaps around 1915. This is a photo of what mine looks like. The light binding post is on the right side in front of the bell. This is from a diagram which was posted online. Here is a link to the diagram. I can't upload in this reply due to an error message saying the upload folder is full.  http://pictures.olsenstoy.com/searchcd31.htm?itm=967

Prewar Lionel Trains 1900-1942 / Question about light binding post of Lional #53
« on: January 02, 2018, 10:41:35 pm »
I have an early NY Central #53 Switch engine that is missing the PWBP Light Binding Post. I'm not sure what its' purpose is or how it should be wired. I have seen various posts listed for sale, and I have photos of what it should look like. I would appreciate any information on this part that is available. The other end of the engine has a pedestal  headlight with no socket. Is there a wiring diagram available and/or a socket part number?  --TIA
