Here is a picture of the part. It is from the back of the engine, the rear light system. The LED’s went out when I was turning the volume knob up, and the screw driver accidently hit the wires, and shorted them out. Anyone know where I could possibly get it? I cannot find the part number.
Colin, If you go to the Lionel site you can see and download an illustrated breakdown for the C-420’s. I tried looking at mine but the clarity of the picture made it difficult to try to compare. Look under the customer service heading.
Here’s the link to the LV C-420 from 2000-2001:

If you’ve got the newer one from 2004, it’s too new to have made it into Lionel’s parts lists.
