  1. Hi

    Talking about emu’s, I’m going to put lighting in my Hornby Bils and Hal’s . Do you know if the headcode boxes were lit, and what was the tail lamp arrangement, the later emu’s had 2 white bars? Later 2 red bars? Just wondered if you knew,

    regards

    Brian

      Thank you for your replies. So no front light at all on these type of locos, even getting in to BR days?

      No, no front light at all, the Bil's, Hal's and Cor's were all withdrawn by 1973.

      The 2-Bil, 2Hal and 4-Cor did have illumination behind the white panel

      Otherwise the units would run without any illumination on the front which would not have been allowed

       

      This picture in the NRM shows the front of the 4-Cor with the box behind the stencil illuminated
