Railway Lighting.

In North Norfolk we have a preserved steam railway line. It runs from Sheringham to Holt. The Christmas train is covered in coloured lights. The line is not electrified. How are the lights powered? I have not had time to find out. Any ideas?

  • Not this particular line, but on another (steam) line the problem was with the emergency lighting.  This was I believe solved using LED's driven from sealed lead acid batteries charged from axial dynamos.
