I have the same Lionel 2027240 UP passenger car set. I wanted to ask you - for the lights on the end of the Lone Star car - mine lights up just like yours does - one of the two red lights above and the drum. Is the other red light above not supposed to light up? I ask because there are two red lights above and only the left one is lit - exactly like your photo.
Thanks

I'd be surprised if both of the tail lights on your Lone Star are red - on mine one is red and one is green and only the red one is illuminated. I have taken my Lone Star car apart and there is only an LED behind the red lens. I assume that this was intended to represent the lighting when the car is at the end of a consist.
Although it does not show it particularly clearly, see the below photo of the stock tail light assembly on mine - but ignore all the other changes from stock such as the marker lights which I added to mine as well as other interior/exterior details:
