     Hey All,
     Does anyone remember when Bachmann had Drumheads on the Observation cars? Did this Drumhead light-up? Or was it just decorative/ ornamental?
     From Ebay, I recall seeing only 2 road names, B&O Blue Royal, and Great Northern.  Were there any others?
     Maybe someone with an old catalog can take a quick look.

       Just too curious. Thanks for any response,

Barry,

I have one PRR version and it does not light up. I do not remember seeing any of them that did.

Those generally came in sets. The drumhead does not light up but an HO or O scale one can be found and made into what you want. Most are LEDs these days and could run from track power.

Guys

Tomar Industries makes lighted drumheads in several scales.
