First off, Street lights, Lots and lots of street lights. Then lighted signs. Micromark sells lighted sign kits for HO and O scale and have a kit where you can make your own as well. Then lit interiors. You would have to get a little creative at getting a definatly out of scale "House Lighting Kit" bulb to look natural, but on my layout, I plan on hiding the holder behind a styrene celieng, letting the bulb protrude through, then decorate it with some ornamental globe looking thing. You will want to light all your station platforms, as well as entry ways to buildings open late. You can also add working stop lights and crossing signals, and they can be used for daytime ops as well. And don't forget layout signals. Not only can they help light up the layout, they are useful in helping direct train movements also. <br /> <br />I hope I have given eneugh for you to chew on for a while. <br /> <br />James.
