Yard flood lights

I’m looking to purchase LED yards lights for my newly finished turntable yard. I’m interested in the Lionel 6-82012. Has anyone used these? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I prefer LED if possible.

I've had two of the Lionel units for a little over 3 years Gene.  No trouble so far.

One is full height........

The second I cut the upper half off.

Both do have LED lights.

Thank you Dallas, that’s exactly what I’m looking for.

Dallas, can I assume with these LED lights having the plug and play connector they run on 18VAC track power? Rather than purchase the pigtail connector wire, could I just cut off the plug and play end and wire it directly to one of my power block terminal strips?

converted some floods to 12Volt Led and also used some 12 volt Led floods from wehonest.

I have the plug and play connectors from the yardlights connected to a stranded two wire ( old extension cord wire ) .     I use my ancient Lionel Trainmaster 10034 with the two wires connected at the " U "  and the " A " ( A =6 volt terminal )

  Besides this setup running the two yard lights it also controls about three dozen other LEDs scattered around the layout.    This setup also allows me to control light intensity for these with the 1034.

I run the full MTH  /  DCS  with remote system for all other functions on the layout.

Thanks, that helps.
