@Trifu22 Yes, they are white LEDs driven by a circuit ripped out of a LED flickering candle. There is a magnetic reed switch embedded in the track which closes when a magnet mounted on the underside of the train bogie passes over it. If I run the train slowly over it, the led will come on for a second or so and appear to flicker. I have built in more LEDs on the points and should be uploading more video to demonstrate this soon.
@CONCORDE444 I think all told around $400 for a six car unit. I put a lot of time into it and added digital train control also. Check out Metromodels in London for prices.
That's a fantastic model you have there.Love the way you've arranged the conductor rail flashes as well,it all looks very real indeed.Good to see you have gone to the not inconsiderable trouble of installing the 3rd and 4th rails too.Keep up the good work!
sorry to ask but were di you get your tube trains from because i am trying to get some fro my track if you get back in touch can you plz send me an email on were or how to get them thank you dylaan
Excellent Top drawer models. Probably the first time i have ever seen such smooth movement of Underground stock on a model layout. Very impressive indeed.
Are the electric arcs fromthe third rail real (if so a lot of current draw)? or are they just LEDs ?

its a shame this 00 gauge tube stock is so expensive, making an 8-car set is very costly!

The Standard Stock has passengers. The 92 stock is due for some upgrades, so people will be added then.
