I started on the lights that will hang out over the apron.
I started by cutting off the cone shaped end from the sand hoppers that I eliminated from the coaling bridge (see new project),this will become the reflector of the light fixture. I then drilled them out and installed a grain of wheat bulb in to them.
As you can see in the pic I used Testors glue for clear plastic for this.
next I glued up some left over angle iron from my water bridge (also see new project) to make the supports for the fixtures. I will paint and install them soon.
