Abstract: A lighting track for use in public transportation vehicles comprises an outer track having upstanding walls connected together by a base portion, together defining a first retention channel. The upstanding walls have a downwardly facing first barrier portion. A receptacle has first and second side walls connected together by a spanning portion, together defining an second retention channel. The side walls have an upwardly facing second barrier portion, and a downwardly facing third barrier portion. When the receptacle is in place in the first retention channel, the first and second side walls are each selectively movable between a respective locking position where the second barrier portion is in intimate engagement with the first barrier portion and a respective unlocking position where the second barrier portion is removed from intimate engagement with the first barrier portion. A top cover has first and second side walls connected together by a lens.
