Special Lighting Unit for use with the Hornby MK3 Coaches.
In many instances a coach fitted with lights has to rely mainly on collecting power from the track via a copper pick up strip pressing against at least one of the coach’s axles. By its very nature such friction on the axle creates drag and therefore reduces the number of coaches that can be pulled behind a locomotive.
The Maglight system is a new development by Hornby that provides lighting in coaches with minimum fuss and no excessive drag because power is provided on board the coach and not by a tension pick up on the axle.
The Maglight system consists of an LED strip, small button battery and a reed switch. Once installed the lights are switched on and off by just passing a ‘magnet wand’ over the coach roof. The small easily replaced button battery provides in excess of 200 hours of power making the Maglight system a simple but effective way of lighting coaches with the minimum of fuss. |
