I'm not sure what you're suggesting. I have lights inside the station shining out through the viewports- or they're supposed to be. Are you saying that 100% transparent is too transparent? Why would they show up in the raw work window and not in the final render? That's what I don't understand. Switching to infite light won't work either, I don't think. The lights wouldn't stay in the station- They'll go back "into orbit"- even though they're parented to the station.
