ow that the shell is complete we can move onto the
frame. I first removed the circuit board and light bulbs,
if you plan to leave the model DC with 1.5 Volt bulbs,
you may want to keep the board. However, if you plan to con-
vert the model to DCC or use LEDs, you can throw the circuit
board and light bulbs in the garbage. On my models I prefer to
use LEDs and a hard-wired DCC decoder, so that is what you
will see here.
