Sunday Photo Fun - 11/28/21
Posted by fifedog on Sunday, November 28, 2021 7:31 AM

Still playing around with the nighttime lighting in the train room.  Sparky (Lionel 1862) is simmering outside of the Romney Depot.

 There are two of these 3 light fixtures in the room.  I use 3 UtiliTech Blue 8w LED spots (with socket adapters), and 3 GE black 5w LED bulbs.  Both products were on clearance at Lowe's.

fife,

Impressive video.  I like the night time effect. 

Here are some vintage shots of the old Blueboard Central Division of American Flyer Lines circa 2009.

Northwoods - Thank you, Sir. The video would give you the impression that the room is a-washed with blue light, but that is what the iPad lens captured. The truer light is off the still shot posted, but that is actually 50% more light than what you experience in person.

How is the new layout coming along...?
