Hi Jörg, yes, I used some masking tape to hold them, worked quite well.
Werner, if you ask for SMD LED001 they will know. They come in a strip of 10 - R70.
Cheers, Evert.

Right, so, once dried I could remove the LED with its cover
Oh, I also slide a small piece of heat shrink over the 2 wires as a light pole, I tested it and then Painted them grey. Weathered slightly with some rust, but not much.

Finally tonight I finished the first 4.
I made the holes in the Platform for the test fit. and I switched them on...... PERFECT
I love it !!!!!!
Yes, the light is white, but our houses and streets is also all different colours, so I'm not going to mess with them to try and get them warm white.
Now to start with the next 4

That came out very nice
The pictures lie about the size - they are super small!

Nice Evert, well done!
Those little leds are really nice.
Thank you for the information. The list for Yebo is getting longer and longer.
Love the idea for making the lampshades, awesome.

Hello All......
Yea, it's been a while, but I have finally finished the station and it is fitted to the layout now
I have also fitted most of the exterior detail for the station, gutters, chimneys ad few smaller details.
Roof and lights for the goods-shed is also done.
Here is a few pictures of how it looks now.
Enjoy and speak again soon.
Cheers Evert.
