Hello Clem,around my engine house which has several tracks and sidings I used the Lionel 6-37995 Lighted Telephone Poles.

 

With these poles spaced out they lighted this area very realistically.

To me the light from each pole is just enough to light an area without being to much light.

They don't take much power to operate either.

Thank you Mark

I bought those this summer but they are too short, my yard tracks are too close together. I hope to use them at my power plant or industrial area. I think they look good.

When I was a brakeman for the Quanah, Acme & Pacific, our yard at Quanah had NO lights (except for our lanterns).  It may have gone back to the WWII days when blackout mentality was everywhere.  I don't remember any lights in the SLSF Oklahoma City yard either.  It was just DARK.

I think it is great that your O gauge switchmen will be able to see on the midnight job, but no lighting in the yard is very prototypical.
