It doesn't look the same without all those lightbulbs.
The Mount went by our house last night and it does have overhead lights, but they are different than the bright white ones it had for a number of years. The current lights appear to be very small blue bulbs or LEDs. In the daytime you can see the overhead wire but you can't really see the lights because they are so small. I think I like the new blue lights better than the old bright white ones.
