“Do they still make clear glass incandescent Christmas lights?”

Amazon says YES! :) C9 or C7 bulbs are still out there!

That's them. Having lived in FL for 25 years, there was no shortage of those being used for lighting nighttime areas. Screened in decks out back. Docks along rivers, lakes and canals. Bars that had and area out back. Indoor bar lighting too. (people looked good, especially with a little alcohol - ymmv - your morning may vary) For $15-25, you could light a big area with low level incandescent ambience.

Well duh, I'll have 12vdc running all over the tunnel and there are no shortage of small 12vdc incandescent bulbs from the auto parts store. A taillight bulb on each side of every truss frame about 8-10 foot up would do it.
