That is one alternative, but the lighting instructions just show the bulb
brick with a headlight reflector brick arrangment.

It is, but it does not come with the train, it only comes with sets of
plastic non conducting, non driven wheels, in otherwords it comes as a push

The tender is where the fuel for the train is stored, wood, coal, whatever.
