Postar Tender 2046W Light Conversion | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Hello OGR Forum

Lionel made a 2671W tender that had working lights in the back where the three port holes are located. I have a 2046W tender that happens to have the three port holes open. Does anyone know how I might wire the inside to provide light to the three port holes? (See photo of what I am looking to accomplish.)

Do you know how I would connect the light bulb wire? What would I connect it to?

The wire goes to the center rail pickup; usually junctioned on a lug on the whistle assembly:
