Does anyone make LED replacements for Lionel passenger car lights? I have several set of passenger cars from the 1980s and 1990s and they use a lot of amps when running. I would like to switch them over to LEDs.
Thanks

John, do you know the temperature of your kit relative to current Lionel releases? I want to convert all my 2014 era Polar Express HWs (black roof) to match the new LED add on cars. Would definitely like to use your product if the color and temperature matches.
I use Gunner John’s lights in all my formally incandescent cats.
I use Pinball bulbs LED from Amazon. come in many shades and colors.
I know John has stated he sometimes paints over the lights to get the right shade and/or temperature.

Typically, they're right around 3000K in color temperature, that's pretty much the standard "warm white" LED. I don't have any idea in what is in the Lionel cars.
If you want to select the LED reels yourself, just use the LED Lighting Regulator boards and use your own hand selected LED's.
