I think the Lionel Standard O cars look the best to me. Here’s a video of it pulling some lionel Standard O and tanks cars I can’t remember the names
Lee, that's great video, but the new guy needs to ask you a question. I noticed that your caboose is illuminated. Is this by a connection to the track or by a battery-powered light inside?
It’s probably not keeping connection maybe some can tell me how to fix it
I didn't notice a blink, but cleaning the roller, adding a roller if there is only one, or bulb isolation and adding a diode & capacitor set up are the options. You need a pretty big cap for a bulb, might think about an l.e.d. instead. The same cap might keep an led lit for a quite a while in comparison. The last ones I did, 4 led stayed lit over 2 minutes after it was removed from the rails. It fades out vs a sudden blink out... but that wouldn't be impossible to reproduce if you wanted a sudden off for some reason.
I’m thinking about a soft white LEDS but I run this caboose a lot.
