The MU's with Pantographs down were being pulled by diesel power during the transition period. You ask how lights and power were genterated on those cars. Well the fact is there were no lights powered at all. It was dark inside. But note: Remember this. During that week service was limited and those train sets with the Mu's were run during daylight hours. Expect for going through Bergen tunnel, there was daylight outside. When trains were not on rush hour time, it was two hours between trains. I still have the temporary schedule in my attic. Perhaps later I can post it.
