I finished the constant lighting circuit for my 200 ton GN crane today and checked it out on my test track:





And a "night shot":



It looks like too much light- I still have some blackout masking to do with the LEDs- but amazingly, all three LEDs light in both directions, when track power is applied!

I really have to work on my circuit-building neatness skills- the wiring job is (fortunately) not going to be visible, but I know it could have been done much better. Next time!!!!!!!!

Now, decaling and dull-coating the crane cabin, then installing the circuit for a final update soon!

Good grief... I can't seem to get any of my 250-ton cranes even built (I have 3), let alone wired up like this thing! Nicely done
