Why this accessory matters

Turnout lanterns were historically used to indicate the direction of points at night or in low visibility. Adding them to your layout improves realism and helps replicate authentic railway operating practices, especially in vintage or detailed scenic builds.

How to use it

Attach the lantern kit to your turnout mechanism using the supplied fitting points. Position it so the indicator is visible from the operator’s viewing angle. For non-lit versions, place near scenic lighting for best visibility.

This is a model accessory. It is not a toy.
