Lights Across the Country: Missouri LED lights in a Model Train Village

November 24, 2015

Robert, one of our customers in Missouri sent us these photos showing how he’s using LED light strings and LED craft lights in his stunning Christmas Winter Village with HO scale train.

My boys thought these photos were great and I had to share.

Notice how the LED lights are tucked:

Inside the buildings
Accenting the walkways
Highlighting the figures – especially in the Nativity and Zoo areas!

I remember how fun it was to see projects like this when I was a kid and they still put a big smile on my face.
