Kernow GWR Steam Railmotor reducing head tail lamp brightness for analogue use 

This will be a technical discussion for those with some electronic knowledge and I am not recommending you undertake any of the actions I have done, however I have sought to minimise alteration to the original model design.
I had to send back my original model seen in the video here due to failure of the LED head and tail lights, as you can see here the white light had already failed and the rear red was massively bright heading for oblivion.
Kernow sent me a brand new model but I noticed the head and tail lights were very bright. Not only did this look all wrong for what were in fact very dimly lit paraffin or oil lamps but the LEDs looked to be at serious risk of burning out again.
It also spoiled an otherwise fantastic model making it look like something out of close encounters!
