Terrific idea using clothes pin to hold the light poles up as the glue dries!

Thanks from Portland, Oregon USA

Hi Mark, really interesting watching how you clearly explain, and the ideas that I never imagined to put to use. Thank you and keep up the work

Just found your site and subscribed . It's actually quite nice to see someone doing what their talking about instead of just showing it done

thanks for sharing, makes me feel like giving it a go on my layout

Testing the lights: I use a little CR2032 3V lithium cell that I have taken out of the kitchen scales. Can't blow anything with that, but it's enough to just make an LED glow. And there's a + mark on the top, so you know. Might not work with some white ones, but I don't use them.

You make some great points in wiring up the LEDs, the warning about using 9v battery makes sense, easy to grab the first battery you have to try out new lights and its usually one of them lying around. Enjoyed the latest update. All the best.

Pretty cool. Thanks for sharing.

Great idea using cable ties, some great tips thank you 👍

Hello from Dublin 12

Hi ya Mark. Another informative tutorial. Thanks. See ya.

Great stuff!

Well done, thanks for that. Now I have a better idea on what I need to do. Cheers.

All your videos are great.!!

Hello Mark. Really enjoying your 'how to' videos and the history of Donegal station and railway. Many thanks and keep up the great work.

Another great video, thanks for sharing. Thanks also for your advice on the colour light signals. It was a wiring issue causing the problem. However, on one of the signals I think we’ve blown the bulbs somehow. Looking for replacement bulbs now! Roy.

Good content, well explained. Thank you for taking the time to upload it!

Excellent job looking to do something like this for under Christmas tree this year

Hello Mark, I've watched this video again now I'm closer to actually needing to wire up some lights myself. Some of the wires from lights are as thin as cats whiskers - can these be soldered to and extended with 'normal' wire to reach a buck converter for instance?

Fantastic vid very informative. I got a question where do you get wire to contect the lights I have tried local electrical wholesalers but to no avail. Thanks for any help and advice.

Great video. Which resister for 12 volt to 3 volt! What is your power source? Can I use 1/8” rubber mat for my track bed? Will it cause me trouble?

Thank you for this. What are those wire strippers called? I have never seen a set like that. What gauge do they go down to?

The Reopening of the Western Rail Corridor would cut down on Traffic Jams, Car Accidents, Road Deaths & Pollution and 24 hour trains in summer & St. Stephen's Day trains too put it on 4 RTE programmes The Week In Politics, Nationwide, Claire Byrne Live & Prime Time.

hiya Mark, Im just on with adding more 3v street lights to my layout too

Extra points for intro music.

This video is very helpful

Hi Mark , Thank you for your video it was easily understandable, but I wonder if I can wire the lights to a cord with a switch that will plug into a wall socket.

hello there friend I appreciate your video, very easy to understand. I'm not new to miniatures but I am to Led lighting models and currently soaking up info and learning as much as I can since I have a project I'm currently working on which will be lit up, it will be an HO scale little Christmas town and I would like to do the lighting correctly since it will be a gift for a friend on December 1st. I purchased some HO scale lamps as well as the distributor board from a company called Evemodel. they make stuff for miniature train layouts. I was wondering if you know about them and if possible some more guidance on how to connect and add lights, I need to understand voltage and those other important things. thank you!

?: Hi Mark, I’m brand new to modelling & I’m trying to work out street, building lighting etc, your video was very helpful - Can I ask when you contacted each separate light to the main live & neutral did you connect all the light wires to the one main L/N wire? Or did you use separate? It looks like one but I would like to make sure. Thanks in advance, Angel ✌🏻

can you help me where can I get the three batter tester from

Is your layout DC or DCC? Will you be using DCC to control the lights? If not, what will you use? (I do not mean the power source, but how you will turn them on and off.

Hi. So I was wondering win you put on a resistor on . What do you do with the other end of the resistor ... Do you but tape on it or leave it bear . And is that ok. Thank you so much for your help great video . And I am just now starting to put out my track lay out see you later!!!!!

Could I use a 6v power adapter as a power source and eliminate the resistor? I plan on using use a toggle switch for on and off for non led lamp post.

Hi Mark 👍awesome Channel , new sub from🇩🇰

Hi , What value of resistor did you fit and how did you determine it ????

If you are adding to an older layout, you can’t turn on its side and you can’t solder upside down, what would you do?

how did you connect the bus wire to your controller please
