awesome car thx for sharing.😊😊👍👍👍

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Thank you mate very much appreciated kind regards Danny 😊😃

You have really done a great job installing the lights and it improves the model no end. Looks really good. Great work. I really wish Hornby would install these simple lights as it makes the model look so much better. 👏👏👏

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Hi Richie thank you mate, I agree it would look ten times better if the unit already had lights fitted to them, it wouldn't be difficult for hornby to install as it's very common nowadays to have lights already fitted to our locos, still it was a very fun project and super happy I didn't damage the body shell when installing them, hope you are keeping well kind regards Danny 😊

Hi, Danny! I loved that unit when it first came out, and now having you light it up is just icing on the cake. I like them enough to want them, now. Excellent work! Now, to find the set without Joyce finding out. lol

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Lol 😂 yep I agree with you there mate I have had to secretly buy a train before so the wife didn't find out lol 😅 the 156 in northern rail livery is just simply stunning and I purchased the lights from stickswipes on eBay, which has just totally transformed the unit, hope you and Joyce are keeping well kind regards Danny 😊😃

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Hi David mate sorry for late reply my new job at Waterloo has been really hectic lately and it's hard to find a balance with work, family and life in general, haven't been up in the loft for a while so will be hoping to get a much needed running session when I'm next off, I have watched your video 5 times now its always exciting watching your fantastic videos, I must apologise that I don't think I commented on your video so will do that when I'm next off kind regards Danny 😀 😊

[@warwickroadmodelrailway]

@@IVERJUNCTION Hi Danny, no problem at all, I am so pleased that you watching my videos. It is very important to have a good work life balance, family massively important.

These lights look very good and I do love the livery on the 156

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Thank you josh I mate yep I have to agree the livery is simply stunning mate kind regards Danny 😊😃

[@medwaypeninsulaMR]

I have that one and it’s one of my favourites. But I agree the lights do improve it. Cheers Kev

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Hi kev mate a project successfully completed bit nervy drilling the holes but well worth it looks superb hope you are keeping well kind regards Danny 😊😃

[@hotdogpilot6319]

Always a tuff job, well done.

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Thank you Andy mate a nice successful project completed and certainly makes a lot of difference with having lights fitted hope you are keeping well kind regards Danny 😊😃

[@ianobrien6908]

Hi Danny, well done on fitting the lights, elevates the model from what looks like Railroad range to more realistic. Question, did you get the lighting kit from Illuminated Products? As always, great update, all the best. Ian

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Hi Ian thank you mate, the lights were purchased from stickswipe on ebay they look way more realistic, I have used iluminated models lights in one of my hornby class 66s but to be honest wasn't happy with how it looked and turned out, as always thank you very much for watching and commenting very much appreciated, hope you are keeping well kind regards Danny 😊😃

[@going2thedogs]

Nice work Danny. You have made a good model even better. What about lights inside the passenger compartment & then adding some people? Or is the glazing tinted & therefore make this not relevant.

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Hi mate thank you it has crossed my mind but now I have successfully added head and tail lights I would like to add compartment lights wired to decoder socket, a project I'm certainly considering thank you so much for commenting and watching sorry for late reply work has been hectic recently, hope you are keeping well kind regards Danny 😊

[@bluebellcentralmodelrailwa4064]

Awesome job there Danny well done mate. Where did you get the lights board from & does it come with full installation instructions as I'm not savvy when it comes to electrics. ATB mate cheers Kevin 👨‍🔧💡👍🤝

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Hello kev mate I purchased the lights from stickswipes on eBay and I used my hornby sound decoder diagram with how it explains what numbers on the 8 pin decoder board that I need to solder the red and black wire too, and if I remember correctly it was pin 2 and aux pin for light functions, soldering part was really easy but drilling the holes was very nervy as they are really tiny, thank you for watching and commenting very much appreciated and i hope you are kerping well kind regards Danny 😊😃

[@bluebellcentralmodelrailwa4064]

@@IVERJUNCTION cheers Danny for info. Glad the project went well for you mate 💡👨‍🔧

[@IVERJUNCTION]

[@darrelldeltic807]

Well done Danny, great job on the lights mate, did you get them from stickswipe? Certainly makes a huge difference 😃👍

[@IVERJUNCTION]

Hi Darrell mate yep that's correct I purchased the lights from stickswipes and wow it has totally transformed the unit even though the northern rail livery is just simply stunning, fitting lights to it makes it look even more stunning a project successful and I'm super super happy with it now, hope you are keeping well Mate kind regards Danny 😊😃
