Model Railroading > Atlas Dash-8 -40B LightsDate: 04/06/20 14:48 Atlas Dash-8 -40B Lights Author: checkmate007 Hi Everyone,
Now that we have some time to model I'm trying to figure out how to fix the lights for a Santa Fe Dash 8-40B that goes on the nose. Is there a manufacture out there that makes the correct housing? Thanks!

One was somewhat protruded off the nose and the other was recessed with a sort of box trim around the headlight. Which one are you trying to model?
