Does anyone know how to contact Mark the Menards Man? I would like to know the voltage of the Chicago ambulance. I think it is 4.5V. I want to hard wire it & do away with the batteries & then the lights on the ambulance will come on when I turn on my train board.
Thank You, Ken M

If you find out. Please post here. I was thinking the same thing except with a switch so visitors can turn it on.
Anyone know the scale on this thing? I bought one and its HUGE! Maybe bigger than 1:43, but I dont know the prototype dimensions..
how many batteries and what kind add up the voltage of all the batteries.
Maybe a picture of ambulance would help here.
Thanks, John
I think the new ones on flatcars have the wiring throught the flatcar maybe getting one of those and using what you got from the flatcar will help.

Looks at Stan's posting, a really good guess is 4.5 volts for power. 
I Just finished hard wiring the Ambulance at 5VDC, works great.\
