    Here's my Atlas SD60M that I put Brian's module in. I also added some fiber optic ditch lights as well.

    Russ,
    It looks excellent, how difficult was it to install the ditch lights?

    Looks great, Russ.

    What size filiment did you use? I've got some, but it's about .75mm, a little too thick?

    Thanks guys! :D

    Brian, I believe I used .030 strands. I got the idea from a website I found where there were great how-to photos. I've got to get ready to go out, but I'll try to find that link and post it later. It explains absolutely everything very well.

    Brian. Welcome to TrainBoard. As of now I can't offord to buy anything until sometime after Christmas, but your LED system sure sounds good and I will buy some later. :D :D

    Looks like great stuff Brian! Do you make a light board for the B23-7 or does anyone on the board have an old one they want to sell? I fried one of mine trying to put White LED's in it! ha ha ha! :D

    I just grabbed one of these kits off ebay the other day. Hopefully it will be here soon.

    Last year, I converted all my units to white LEDs using Digi-Key LEDs. That was during the time when most everyone was objecting to the blue-ish tint. Didn't bother me then or now. When I get my new layout running, I'll convert my Kato SD90 units.
