Description

This is Con-Cor 8734 Twn Hdligt Zephyr Set 3/. 1940s Zephyr 2-headlight version 3-car train-only set, standard DC. Chicago, Burlington & Quincy. After several accidents, the Pioneer Zephyr was modified in the 1940’s to add a double Twin Headlight assembly above the nose, and the rear observation car.

The second headlight on the nose was an early version of the Mars light. A bright oscillating light enabled motorists to see the approaching train from a greater distance.

Con-Cor’s version of the Twin Headlight Zephyr will use a flashing LED that will operate in both DC and DCC mode to simulate this safety feature. The Pioneer Zephyr retained this twin headlight until its final run on March 20th, 1960.
