Installing your street lamp using a lockon
To install your street lamp, begin by
attaching a lockon (available separately)
to any straight section o track. Fit the center
lip o the lockon onto the edge o an outside
rail. Press the lockon upward so that the
spring contact snaps onto the center rail. The
lockon should ace outward when setting up
your track. Make sure it is firmly connected.
To connect the street lamp to the lockon,
insert a wire into each loop that emerges
when the spring tab on the lockon connector
is depressed. Release the tab, and spring
pressure will hold the wire in place. It’s also
possible to solder the wires to the track.

Your Lionel street lamps also may be con-
nected directly to the trans ormer by
means o extension wires. Several lamps may
be connected to the same trans ormer termi-
nals by wiring them in parallel across two
extension wires. Connections may be sol-
dered or twisted securely and then wrapped
with electrical tape to avoid short circuits.
