I have a handful of incandescent bayonet type toy train bulbs.  Some are clearly labeled, 14v, 12-16v, 18v, others are not.  Is there a way to ID bulb voltage by resistance?  The labeled ones are fairly consistent in resistance.  The one I am looking to replace has a higher resistance (32Ω) but are not labeled.  I'm guessing these are rated for above 18v, as they are much dimmer than the 18v bulbs at 18v.  These were installed in K-Line Heavyweights that I picked up, which had 2 different bulbs in one car.

Thanks,

Jim
