Here is an old
fashion trolley.
My effort toward this trolley began from inspiration from the Greater
Portland LEGO Railroaders. If it were not for the GPLR, I would probably
never have generated this design. Working on this trolley reminded me just
how far we as LEGO Train Fans have come. Not just in model-making, but in
public displays of our craft. I am constantly in awe of the latest greatest
LEGO train club displays. You surround beautiful train models with fantastic
structures, road vehicles, and scenery which raise every single creation to
more than it would be by itself, alone on a shelf.
I have wondered for several months what should become of this trolley design.
And, while it may not be perfect, nor may it be the best trolly out there, I
humbly present the trolley design with dedication to all of the LEGO Train
Clubs, for without your public pressence, I dare say the LEGO train hobby
would not be what it has become today. I wish you all wonderful and great
train show events in your future. Thank you. Seeing your show-pics is truly
an inspiration to me.
Regarding this trolley design, I hope to have hi-rez PNG images and a PDF
file available for download within a week or so. I’m still working on the
design of the back cover. You will be welcome to print it, store it, burn
it, crash it, modify it...whatever you want to do with this trolley design is
fine with me.
later,

Looks nice. You mention that there is no room for a driver, I reckon if you
replace the 1x4 clack tile in step 8 of
slide 16 with a plate you could attach the top half for a fig to it (they might
have to be bald tho’!)
Goes to check window colours, hmm no tan, only 4 1x2x3 and no 1x4x3 brown, might
have to do a green and white one.
