    Well, I guess funnelfans right! I added a Digi-Key white LED into one of my C44's and it had a little bit of a blue tint in it but it wasn't bad. I put a very thin coat of yellow over it and sure enough, it worked!!!! It's almost all white!!

    Thanks for the info Alan (and funnelfan!!)

    Just thought I'd share a link. [​IMG] This site gives what I consider a very good circuit for putting white LED's in your locos.

    It should also answer some questions posted here about white LED's. BTW like the idea of dipping in yellow paint for colour correction. I'm going to give it a try.
