I love pic's 2 & 3 , the slight reflection of the lights in the rain soaked road Are you going to fit lights in the Bedford bus too? That would be something

 

[trammayo]

Nice atmosphere! Was going to ask about the bloke next to the lamp but thought "no, he's probably just looking for bats"

 

[Steve]

That looks brilliant Mike a work of art

 

[mike]

cheers guys, no, im not planing on adding lights to the bus..just yet... the bloke, hes a day time train spotter, and a night time .....cheers steve, im trying me best

i was never sure of needing lights.....but now as the the buildings should drop in: i need LIGHTS!

that looks very good, and i think there is no need of operation in the dark: having just the lights on is nice to look at.

hi frank, THATS excatly how i feel.. i have the lights on.. dosnt matter that notrhings running.. the village/building would still be lit up..

 

[mike]

and yes, i know,i have the lights on, but no ones home

 

[mike]

done a bit more today, started laying out the village, and wireing it up1st up, place the pavements, make sure they fit, mark out, cut alloy tube for the lamp posts.. knock in the tube, in to the pavement(hole drilled 1st) thread in the wires for the gas lamps, ive run a 12 volt surplly to a choclot block conecter, and all the street lamps, and building lamps are wired into this.. :q26:

 

[mike]

[steve parberry]

I think you should get the neighbours to knock down the conservatory.....


It spoils the view



looking good will soon be heading north again

 

[mike]

cheers guys, the pendelbury models are great.. its dark now, so ive had a look see.. so far, the garage lamps are too bright, needs reduceing.. but other wise.. im reasonably happy with the lighting..
