I have been tempted to order some of the MTH items with the light strings on them. I do have a couple of MTH items with the light strings and they look great. They have engines, passenger cars, 4 pack box cars for the CP Holiday Train and Christmas / Santa trains and all sorts of other freight cars with lighted figures or trees and strings of lights along the sides and buildings with light strings.
In our train club some people have had the occasional problem with the light strings failing on their equipment. And I have seen some issues on the forum with folks having issues. I have been searching on line and can not find a similar type of light string to purchase with the closely spaced bulbs. Evans Designs has some light strings but the bulbs are spaced further apart. https://evandesigns.com/produc...natures-and-dioramas
Is there any where that a mini light string could be purchased with closely spaced bulbs like on the MTH trains? I am reluctant to purchase an expensive set like an engine and passenger cars or make a big investment if I have to worry about the bulbs failing and not be able to find a replacement?
