Tom: Were you able to check with your friend regarding the installation of
a decoder in a Burlington Business Car?
Or, could you tell me who did it for you? Mine is a Christmas present from
my wife and we would like to have it "under the tree" but it is now
disassembeled on my workbench.

capability of controlling the Marker Lights on one function and the interior
lights on the second function. The decoder fit perfectly in the interior
bathroom (I think that is what it was). If I remember correctly, the
contacts up on top of the light bar had been isolated/insulated and soldered
onto and than the bulbs attached to the lighting function leads. I will have
my friend who did the actual install verify this and I will do a followup
posting.
