Re: Using LEDs to light model train layouts

I have been using them extensively too. I find the surface mount ones
the best, they are even smaller than the 3mm ones and they emit light
in a broad angle...

Yup, I just love LEDs !

and BTW, don't waste money on expensive ones of certain color, just
use a dab of acrylic paint to make them as warm as you want them to
be. Takes a just a few seconds.
