I recommend changing the bulbs to bulb-type leds if you run command control. If not you run the risk of melting the plastic light covers.
Very nice car. Enjoy.

Dennis,
According to the statement in the back of the 2011 LCT catalog, members of the club can buy previously issued club cars. I assume that means subject to availability.
I also see them on ebay every now and then and the Buy/Sell forum here.

Hi guys - following up on this post since I just picked up the Army Air Corps version of Keith's tinplate searchlight car. Does anyone have a vendor AND part number for a replacement LED bulb? I've looked through the forums and on-line, but I'm not sure which screw base bulb is correct for this car. Thanks!

Gentlemen,
My original Red Lionel 2620 Flood Light Car has one single spot light, the light has no plastic to it what so ever, full glass lens held with a stainless steel spring type lens locking clip, the spot light is mounted on Cast Iron Arms. No Lionel plastic Insig on lens, so nothing to melt. However I use a Williams GG-1 to pull the Tin Plate 2600 work train most of the time, and with the new motors in the Willimas engine, the bulb in the flood light car never gets warm enough to damage anything. My Reproduction Green MTH 2800 series double Flood Light Car has glass lenses also, nothing to melt either.
Got to say your new Lionel Flood Light Car looks way cool, might have to invest in
another one, for the 263E Work Train, would be cool with double crane cars and double flood light cars.
