Lighthouse Oak Island

From Wikipedia

The Oak Island Light is located in the Town of Caswell Beach near the mouth of the Cape Fear River in Southeastern North Carolina. It sits next to a Coast Guard Station on the east end of Oak Island in Brunswick County and looks south out at the Atlantic Ocean. Featuring four 2.5 million candlepower aerobeacon lenses which produce four, one-second bursts of light every 10 seconds, it has a luminous range of 24 nautical miles while its geographic range for an observer at sea level is 16 nautical miles.[4][5] Owned by the town since 2004, it is managed by a citizens group (Friends of Oak Island Lighthouse).

The light produced by this lighthouse is so intense U.S. Coast Guard officials have to wear fire-fighting suits when servicing it, or else get third-degree burns. It is the second most powerful lighthouse in the U.S., next to the Charleston Lighthouse in South Carolina.
I tested this model in T:ANE and Trainz 2019 with no errors. It is not compatible with Trainz 2012. Something about a failed binary conversion...
