Looking for a strip of silhouette passengers to put inside a passenger car. I have not been able to find this so far, any leads?

They are different from heavyweight to streamlined, and traditional size to scale sized.
Which type of car do you have? What is the length?
The parts suppliers should have them for cars that are copies of post war models.
They are the Williams 2404 southern crescent 70 ft cars. They have silhouette now but they are on dense stock and little light comes through them.
I am not familiar with the 2404 cars. Are those streamlined or heavyweights?
The aluminum cars have separate window strips that can be changed. Some of the Williams streamlined plastic 18 inch cars are made of clear plastic and painted, with the windows masked off. At least the vista dome is like that.
If you just want more light coming through, why not put in lower voltage bulbs? Bulb number 51 is 6-8 volts. If you are running Williams engines in conventional mode (not TMCC or command, or DCS) then you are probably running around 7 volts on the track.
