This week features a special episode, #279.5 for July 1st, 2024. We explore the realm of LED lighting for model layouts using the Just Plug lighting system by Woodland Scenics. We'll dissect the system's components to demonstrate its intended functionality and then proceed to integrate the lights into a layout's wharf scene, completing the process in roughly 20 minutes of video.

    That’s intresting I might need to revisit that in one of my videos. I do hope WS can get more product to Australia we have not had new stock in nearly 2 years the last light hub I bought cost me $300USD and you can imagine all the trouble I had getting the seller to send it to me. It was a disaster. That’s why I haven’t got many new lights on the way out at the moment, but that fuel depot was coming along when the rest of those flood lights should get wired up in the next couple of weeks this week, the video will cover a first for my channel, attempting to model something no one else has attempted whether it be in rail, air or military style locations, following that we’re off to my custom-made Signal gantries. Hope you get a chance to pop and have a couple of videos include the building of the CRICKET PITCH and indeed the radio controlled circuit. Do stay safe. See you in the next one.

    I use a lot of these lights and they are really nice. It’s only the tiny fine wires that are hard on my eyes!

    We considered using these but instead are using ESU SignalPilot decoders which give more control options.

    Nice lighting. The only thing is that all light have the exact same colour. In real life there is a colour difference, at least those that are inside buildings. Partly because of the used light, partly because of the reflection in the building. I suggest to use different yellow-ish markers, maybe even orange, to make a variation in the light colours.

    They sell several different colors for the system. I believe they even have flashing lights too.
