"HONGZ" stands for HO scale, N scale, G scale, and Z scale.

Post your non-O scale stuff here!

So my latest purchase to my G scale is this New Old Stock Aristocraft PRR cabin car [caboose in PRR talk]. Unlike O guage, There are no lights or interiors in this cabin car. I want to change that so I was looking at the LGB ball bearing wheels with electrical pick ups along with led lighting kits.  My question is do I need just one LGB ball bearing wheelset along with a regular ballbearing metal wheelset or do I need both wheels to be ballbearing with electrical pick up? 🤔

I also aquired an LGB passenger set that I am looking to upgrade as well

After you change out the wheel sets for pickup a simple bulb or led strip lighting will work.
