I wonder if that would be expensive? A single such light from shop.lego.com
is US$9.99. I don't have trains, so no spare lighting parts of my own.

Perhaps Technic 1x2 beams (with a hole) can be used with LEDs or a single
internal light source.

would work for most of the model, with maybe a brighter set used for the
thrusters.

Theinterior would appear to have more than enough room for interior light
sources and even power sources. It might be a thought to putthe thrusters on
a separate circuit that can be throttled with  a train  regulator switch so
it can be dimmed and brightened at will.
