Hight Mast Lighting
Posted by oracomm on Tuesday, August 12, 2014 12:36 PM

first time post, and just recently started my model railroading "career"  

 

Does anyone know of a company that sell HO scale High Mast Lighting preferably functional.    Some thing that may be found in a very large parking lot, along a major freeway interchange or in my case an intermodal container lot.

thanks in advance

You're in for a good time!  

Walthers lists a lot of HO mast lighting, like NJ International, Busch, etc., but not for the faint of wallet.  

My layout is HO.  At a train show I picked up some what I presume are Lifelike N scale dual highway lights and extended the mast with some brass tubing.  Also modified an HO telephone pole and used a pre-wired SMD LED for a laydown yard light, found the fixture shades at the train show too.

Have fun and good luck, regards, Peter

Those are nice examples, Peter.

And you will save a ton of money if you can build your own.

Flipped open the Walthers catalog and found a relatively new vendor, Viessmann, with lots of choices in lighting the OP may find useful.
