I just don't see spending a lot of money and not at least getting led lighting and being able to quill the whistle. Am i missing something here?

Factory PS3 locomotives come with LED lighting, but in an upgrade, you're dealing with existing G-O-W bulbs and the kits are apparently designed around this. If you really want LEDs, just add an appropriate resistor in series and you're done. I believe they're feeding 5 volts to the G-O-W bulbs; White LEDs operate between 3 and 4 volts.
