GoGoffa Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 I have just received the Thompson teak coaches, Has anyone fitted the extra detail bits, where do they all go? I note that the bogie assemblies have pickups. Is there lighting kits? Who from and how do I fit them if they are available? Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Y Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 I note that the bogie assemblies have pickups. Is there lighting kits? Who from and how do I fit them if they are available? There isn't a lighting kit from Bachmann; it's just that the coaches use common components with other coaching stock which do have the pickups for lighting. I haven't seen any aftermarket products (yet) specifically for them but it should be easy to wire up LED strips to them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rshakes3 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 I also have a rake of these now, I think you will find that the 'extra bits' are Brake & Heating connection pipes along with a dummy Knuckle coupler & a close 'gap' coupling. If you look at the end of the carriage we`ll see holes for the pipes & the Coupler - I`d only use them on the end brake carriage as they really should be joined up between all the carriages on the train. I also intend to put lights in my rake - I have done so with the earlier Portholes and its pretty easy if you have any skill with a soldering iron - just do a bit of search on the Net Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
