G-TraX NKP Berkshire Mars Light.

Unread postby Railfan587 » Mon May 06, 2013 3:53 pm

Could someone make a mars light enhancement pack for the G-TraX Berkshire? The mars light on NKP Berks is usually flashing instead of just staying on like on the G-TraX model. Watch 765's mars light in this video.
Is there any way to do this?

The way I see it, nkp has 3 lights. I think what we have is 2. I may be wrong.

I am slightly confus because mars lights do not flash.

Watch this video, note the pattern at 0:50

MARs lights oscillate, which gives the viewer the impression that they flash.

Now you have me confused. The mars light on my berk oscillates, it does not flash.

They oscillate, yes, it's just as it is pre-2012, it doesn't have the ground effect. It should look like the SP SD45s effect.

I still don't have a working mars light on my end, and I was wondering if there is anyway to make the mars light have a flashing illusion.

Just had a thought. I wonder if the mars light only works with the TSX on.
