Thanks guys for the good information you are posting here may try this in some of the 3 rail passenger trains.
I happened to see and pickup at a store, 6 feet of LED peel and stick white LED lights roll with a battery pack taking 4 AA batteries for $15. Can be cut and spliced. Runs for 60 hours on a new set of batteries. Going to try this in a set of my O scale 2 rail passenger cars and remove the power pickup wipers from the wheels that are giving me a lot of drag, hopefully will allow me to pull it with my O scale steamer that now slips with the cars with wipers. Battery pack should fit in tender will add a switch within easy reach.
