Description
A picture of my Bachmann HO scale crossing signals to go with the Bachmann Dual crossing gates.The two on the left are these ones here in this picture
The one on the far right is the same signal as this one taken two years ago
The difference between the two on the left and the one on the right is the two on the left are lit with white LEDs while the one on the far right is lit with red LEDs. All are SMD LEDs but different colors and from different places. The white LEDs are from CH_TOWN Electronics and I ordered those through eBay. The red LEDs came from Model Modz modelmodz.com/Ultra-Nano-SMD-L… Also the red LEDs came with resistors but the white LEDs didn't. The ones I bought from Model Modz you can only get one piece at a time (I bought two individual pieces and it cost me 11 dollars including shipping!) Actually you can get a 10-pack from them but it's way more expensive, 26.50 and I waited over a month to get the ones I bought! I'd buy from CH_Town instead or from www.ebay.com/itm/195361869486?… although it'll take about two or three weeks for delivery after purchase but it's worth it. I did buy those as well and those seem to work better and I will show those to you in some later submissions!
Anyway I just wanted you to see the difference between the white LEDs and the red LEDs, or compare them. True they don't look that much different but they do a little! Admittedly the red LEDs look better but the white LEDs make it more realistic! Also kind of redundant to have red LEDs shining behind red lenses, but either red or white work fine!
Again, I know it's not that interesting but thanks for looking. Hopefully what I plan to have up soon, using some of these items, will be more interesting!
