In 4mm scale you can also specify fibre optic lighting instead of smd leds at the same price. (These have 2 cables per lamp, one for the front and one for the back). However, Fibre Optic illumination is likely to be less bright.

You can also have Fibre Optic cable in 7mm scale but the light level will be lower than using LEDs. Larger diameter cable may offset this. However may be better for use outdoors.


Please note that it is just about possible to fit Modelu GWR and Adlake signal lamps in 2mm scale with SMD LEDS as well as Fibre Optic cable with certain provisos.

The provisos are:

1) You accept that the amount light will not be as great as with an SMD LED (which is approx lamp size and shape)

2) In 2mm scale it is not possible to completely hide the fibre optic cable as it has to enter through the back light aperture.

2) I should add that if you prefer fibre optic lighting in 4mm scale it is possible for it to enter at the side of the lamp, basically two fibres one for front and one for back so unless the post is of the lattice variety you will hardly see the fibres.
