Campfires

Town and Country hobbies in NJ has a great one and you can get the pot to hang over for cooking the beans and franks, check their web page.

I used the fire LED light kit from evans design, drilled a hole poked them trough.  then if you like where the roads get salted for ice, grab a handful of small ciders and to top it off use some small broken sticks. 

Evans Design, LED and very reasonable/. Add your own wood, too!

My hobos stay warm near their Evan Designs LED Kit fire.

Made the log stack with glued sticks in a pile, placed over LEDs

IF you're an electrical DIY'er, the lighting portion can be handled with LED flickering tea candles which are 2 for $1 at DollarTree or similar stores. They run on 3V batteries which can be derived from accessory power.  Here's a photo from a different thread showing the typical guts. The supplied LED can be swapped for one of a different color as some campfire circuits use multiple LED colors (red, orange, yellow) to achieve a more realistic effect.  Again, this is only for the electrical tinkerer.

I have this campfire by Lemax. It works off 2 double A batteries. If anyone is interested you can have it for $12.75 shipped. Paypal or money order.

Lionel had a hobo camp fire a few years ago.  It looks great and you could easily change out the hobos for campers.  

Another option....also on the sourcelist...
