The R100 was made both before and after WW II according to Tandem Assoc.  Lionel made 38 different models in the post war era, and only 5 had both red and green lights.  I know red is an indication of a tripped breaker in the ZW model, but after studying the pictograph drawing of the wiring of the R100, it is hard to say that the red lamp is not just indicating that the left hand control has voltage available.  Can anyone confirm that red on the R100 is a tripped breaker indication?  Thanks.

...I'm admiring that pictorial drawing. Nicely done drafting, IMO.

Goes to show how integrated Lionel was in making toys... they had to draw these diagrams for servicing their stuff as well as make the trains... the detail that John Schmid goes into in his book on sets on just printing the instruction sheets and accessory envelopes is astounding.
