LOCO LIGHTS

[ern45]

Hallo everyone,

Please can someone help me. Often you will load a steam loco, and you need to add the front lights (white on) and rear lights (even to the tender) showing red. Once placement is completed, I attach this to the vehicle (the chain emblem) but after a while I find these lights (one or 2) disappear or gets "left" behind somewhere. How do I solve this as I am tired of having to copy, re-align and attach.

Thanks in advance

That's difficult to say, Ern. Because normally the lights do stay attached.
And according to your description, you're doing it right.

Whatever is causing the lights to wander, is something you do that's missing from your description. 

A classic cause would be that someone uses the link and grouping at the same time and with the same objects. The two methods of keeping multiple objects together tend to fight each other when used in combination.

Kind regards
Goetz

Hallo Goetz,

I think I might have found my problem. When fitting a loco with lights do it "new" from the catalog. Do not copy & paste from another loco. It seems to have solved the problem (I hope).

Kind regards
