    You can take out the LED's and use them for your PC boards on your locos.

    • Mount them under buildings, rewire the on / off to a control panel and light up a few.
    • Keep at least one for looking for dropped parts: Laying it on flat non-carpeted floor will cause the part to cast a shadow.
    • Storage tanks for "All-U-light-ium" - Send me a couple and I'll store "Mysterium" in them. :)
    • Use them as supports for buildings in a hyper-modern "Cyt-ie"
    • Want more?
    • Leave part exposed on a mini-scene of an alien ship sticking out of rock or a tree line. It could be "glowing".

    haha nice. i should mention that the LED assemblies were taken out already for another project. but using the on/off switches for something is something i didnt think about!

    Yep! Containers to ship gray ones "Mysterium".
    Build a cradle on a flat car to ship each container and make up a special unit train.
