    Here are a couple of lighted boxes my Dad and I built for display, as well as a few backglasses just mounted to the wall.

    The lighted ones are probably more complicated than they needed to be.......with a Radio Shack transformer and #47 lights, with flasher bulbs wired on a 2nd circuit. It works, and the effect is "authentic". I tried to wire them with a strand of Christmas bulbs, but just could not get the effect i was looking for....
    Mock up (initially powered by a model train transformer):
