Tigger Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Can anyone describe the Class 68 Hazard Lights please. I understand that when selected by the driver the high beam head lights flash. Do the rear lights remain steady red or do they flash or do the high beam headlights flash at the rear as well?. I ask because I have adapted my Dapol Class 68 lights to operate as per the prototypes , ie the top marker operates with the halo lights etc. And it would be good to add this feature correctly.

RMweb Premium uax6 Posted March 20, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 20, 2017 The line 'remain steady red' is odd, as unless it is a light loco the reds should not be on.... Andy G Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy G Thanks Andy, I understand that regarding light loco or with a train. Maybe i should rephrahase. Assuming it is light loco would the rear reds remain at steady red or would the high beam headlights flash at both ends? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium uax6 Posted March 20, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 20, 2017 Well considering I'm a signaller on the railway, you would think that we would have been told what hazard lights actually look like wouldn't you? But you would be wrong, I haven't a clue! I think on some of the older units the orange door lights come on...... Andy G Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zomboid Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 The line 'remain steady red' is odd, as unless it is a light loco the reds should not be on.... Andy G Don't they use the red lights when propelling or top & tailing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigger Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 Don't they use the red lights when propelling or top & tailing? They do, but I am trying to understand the configuration of lights when the driver activated the Hazard Lights Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PM47079 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 If its any help the Freightliner locos 66/70 which were fitted from new. With them have the same setup I.e. both headlamps flashing . I would imagine the 68 would be the same. The two brightest lights flashing together Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigger Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 Thanks PM47079. I'll work on that unless someone else knows any different Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PM47079 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Also on a 66 you can have tail lights lit with hazards on. On a 70 you can't as they are on the same rotary switch which is day, night, markers, hazards Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
