--A REAL TREAT FROM TOYS & STUFF: Ed is showcasing some of the many Marx/Marxville train accessories marketed for their line of 3-rail O-gauge trains. The line of toys and buildings is generally referred to as 'Marxville'. Lionel had 'Lionelville', K-Line had 'K-Lineville', and Bachman had their 'Plasticville' buildings - lots of villes out there in toy land! See Part 1 here http://www.toyconnect.blogspot.com/2013/08/marx-marxville-accessories-pt-1.html

Thanks for the instructions on how to make the lamps. I've wanted these for a while but "store-bought" ones were just not in my budget.
