Greg.
There is a standard HO DCC compatible socket in the three examples I have seen.  That plug also handles the lights.  All the lights were correctly wired Blue/white for the front and Blue/yellow for the rear.  They are plugged and socketed.
The only other plugs are red and black from the track pick ups.  From the main wheels and the pony trucks.
