The Circuitron DL-1 is an electronic lighting accessory for model railroaders who want alternating ditch lights on locomotive projects and railroad layouts. It uses two 1.7 mm diameter, high-intensity lens-end lamps that flash alternately at a slow rate.

DL-1 Features

  • Product type: Oscillating ditch-light circuit and lamp accessory
  • Scale: N scale and HO scale layouts
  • Compatibility: Requires a 2.4–3.0-volt DC input, supplied by batteries or Circuitron TP-2 and TP-3 Track Power Adapters
  • Lighting: Two 1.7 mm high-intensity lens-end lamps alternate at a slow rate
  • Board size: 0.6 × 0.4 × 1.1 inches
  • Adjustment: Flash rate can be changed by replacing the timing resistor; an optional DPST or DPDT switch can bypass the oscillation for constant-on operation
  • Set size: One DL-1 circuit board with two ditch-light outputs

Installation Notes

The circuit requires basic wiring and a 2.4–3.0-volt DC source. Its slow alternating flash pattern is intended to represent pilot-mounted safety lamps used on many railroads, while the optional bypass supports constant-on operation.
