Fireplace

Like the welding effect, this was a quick spur-of-the-moment addition to the list. As I was building my cabin, I decided to see if a fireplace effect could be done easily. Answer: yes. I simply used two flickering LEDs, yellow and orange. These are LEDs with built-in flickering circuits, and can be had for pennies apiece. The windows have frosted adhesive tape applied to help capture and diffuse the light.

Originally built for the Mountain Vista Railroad, it then moved onto the White River & Northern X.
