Hi guys,
I just purchased a used AM S-12 Switcher from eBay, it did not have a light bulb in it, looks like a christmas tree bulb.
Does anyone know the voltage of the light or can you send me a copy of the owners sheet for a Baldwin Switcher?  It looks lie a christmas tree Light Socket.
Thank you,
Aflyer

Aflyer,

 I may have one in my parts stash.  If you post a photo of what you're looking for, I could send it to you in a padded envelope.  I'd rather do that than have it sit in a parts box unused.  AM tends to used standard parts throughout their line to save $$$.  I removed a couple from my GG1 to update the headlights.

Milan,

Thank you, and I will probably call Ron today.  I was just looking for the information that I knew this forum could provide.

Thank you,

George

Jerry,

Thank you very much for a generous offer.  I have to call AM today to order the railings which were damaged in shipping, so I can order some lights also.

But, your post reminds me to look into adding LEDs instead.

Thank you,

George
