Custom Lighted Diecasts by Bill Lowe

Custom Lighted Diecasts by Bill Lowe Super-Bright, Super-Reliable LEDs used to light scale vehicles, locomotives & cars, buildings, etc. for use on model railroad layouts.

Also display models in other scales I buy diecast vehicles in O-gauge scales, mostly 1:43, 1:40, 1:50 and the like. They are then dis-assembled and modified to accept Evan Designs LEDs to represent headlights, tail lights and, in some cases, side-markers and/or flashing lights. My goal is to offer these vehicles to bring new interest and excitement to model rail layouts at very reasonable prices. Most are 7-to-19 volts AD/DC/DCC although some are 5-to-13 volts DC Only.

Just completed this one for a local guy. It is a display model and does not operated on model rail tracks.

The owner intends to use this as a display model. It is a Corgi diecast and does not have motors or pickups for use on the rails.Link to Evan Designs LED pa...

This was done for a guy in PA. First time I've lighted a diecast school bus of this type.

Lots of wire, chips and resistors in these tiny 2-inch long police cars. The pickup was not exactly a walk in the park either. But I'm pleased with how these turned out!

The owner of these who drives an F350 said he wants to recreate a scenario he has been involved in a few times!Link to Evan Designs LED page:https://evandesi...

Building some stock in advance of a train show on March 1st at the Dome Arena in Henrietta. Did one of these back around 2014. This one turned out really sharp in my biased opinion!

Had an absolutely mind-blowing outcome from our stint as vendors this past weekend at the Toy and Train Show at the Event Center at the Fairgrounds in Hamburg, NY. Sold 13 vehicles, a DC power supply, delivered one contract vehicle and also sold $165 dollars worth of novelty radios from my once-huge collection. In the end, it became the second-highest grossing show we've done since starting this back in 2012. Turns out the highest grossing to date was this same show two years ago. Huge thanks to the loyal customers and a couple new ones...could not have happened without your much appreciated support. Now to put my head down and get ready for the next show just two weeks away!
