8.20.08 - Replacement Genesis Headlights On Their Way
A day or so after we got our new LGB Amtrak Genesis locomotive, one of its headlights stopped working. The front lights of the engine are comprised of two center white LEDs and white and red LEDs on either side. The one the broke was, when looking at the front of the locomotive, the left light in the center pair. The six LEDs appear to be soldered to a single circuit board, which has wires leading from the locomotive's main circuit board and wires leading to other lights on the front and in the cab. We have contacted LGB customer service and they are sending us a replacement under warranty. We'll post any updates and details of the installation.
