Rewiring a Lionel 520 Searchlight car | Model Train Forum
Feb 24, 2025 · Hello all, I am rewiring my Lionel 520 searchlight car. The old wiring is all dried out and brittle. I added the new wiring, but only one bulb lights up.

The Used, Abused, and Humble Lionel 520 Box Cab

I knew I wouldn't find an "exact acoustical fit" for the Box Cab, so I installed a Lionel sound board based on an iconic electric loco -- the Pennsylvania GG-1.
