Why this accessory matters
This passenger car set adds authentic rolling stock to HO scale railway layouts. The inclusion of LED interior lighting and current‑conducting close couplers allows the cars to be electrically integrated with a compatible powered unit, enhancing the operational realism of express passenger trains.
How to use it
Place the cars on HO gauge track and couple them together into a train consist. If used with a compatible VT 92.5 powered railcar that supports current through close couplers, the interior lighting can be powered and controlled via that unit. No separate power supply or controller is included, and layout wiring should match the underlying track system (e.g., Märklin AC or DC compatible). Tools, glue, and paint are not required beyond standard layout preparation.
