Con-Cor announced new "HO" and "N"
Pioneer Zephyer with the twin headlights

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. The Con-Cor 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.
