The Pennsy upper head is 13/32" in diameter, the vertical head is 13/32" x 1/8" and the round three color head is 9/32" in diameter.  They are best wired using fine magnet wire found in Atlas N scale switch machines.  The brass head is used as a common connection for all LEDs (one lead of the LED is soldered directly to the head, which also serves to hold the LED in place).  The signal head has a mounting tab on it that will allow it to be soldered or glued to a 1/16 brass tube for support.

Warning:  These are not easy to build.  You will need a very fine soldering iron and very fine soldering skills!
