    Spyshot: 18 wide Trolley —John Neal
   (URL) I've wanted to build this ever since (URL) this> element came out.... Started it last year, and it's still not finished. Sorry about the crummy pic-- really bad lighting, and I got a little crazy with Photoshop, too:-p So just one pic for now; (...) (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
   
        Re: Spyshot: 18 wide Trolley —Jordan Schwarz
     (...) Wow! Almost big enough for small animals and children to ride around in... John, are those train windows in Dark Tan (for the trolley doors)? What set did those come out in?! Very nice work! A truly unique (and uniquely large) creation! (...) (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

     (...) :-) (...) I did say the pic was bad.... Actually, they are old gray. From the Metroliner set:-) (...) Thanks. JOHN (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
   
        Re: Spyshot: 18 wide Trolley —Jordan Schwarz
     (...) John, Very nice work! A creation of truly impressive scale! I am most curious: are those train windows in Dark Tan that you used for the doors of the trolley? If so, what set do those come in?! Awesome trolley! You definitely take trains to (...) (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

     (...) Hey, where are the trolley poles? It ain't a trolley without trolley poles :) No seriously, nice model. Too bad its not 8 wide ;) Chris (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains)
    
         Re: Spyshot: 18 wide Trolley —John Neal
     (...) Actually, when I said it wasn't finished, I really meant that I just need to figure out the trucks and underside stuff, AND put on the poles, so I'm with ya, bro! (...) :-) Thanks, Chris. JOHN (17 years ago, 4-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

     (...) Nice! Love the doors. BIG! I am thinking that at this scale, you will be the first to build a building with dark tan bricks. I am pretty sure duplo bricks are already available in dark tan. ;o) Jonathan (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
   
        Re: Spyshot: 18 wide Trolley —Scott Wardlaw
     Now that really looks amazing! The curved pieces and non-standard colors make it look very realistic! Great work! Scott (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

     (...) Dude, you continue to amaze me at every turn. I can't wait to see the more detailed pictures. So have you made some maxi-figs to go with that 18-wide behemoth? :-) -Dave (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

        Re: Spyshot: 18 wide Trolley —Tim David
     (...) At last! That looks cool. Until you say otherwise I'm going to guess those windows in the doors are grey. What scale are you working to? 45mm track at standard gauge gives about 1:30 but it looks narrow gauge to me. Tim (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
    
         Re: Spyshot: 18 wide Trolley —John Neal
     (...) Yup. Old gray. (...) Well, this MOC is actually a digression from my G scale course, because I've basically built it around the dark blue curved slopes. So I think this trolley is about 1:18 scale, or basically miniland scale (1:20). Of (...) (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

   (...) (URL) Looks like someone beat you off the track John. According to the readme, 16-wide, G-gauge track (via BBB wheels) and couplers. Benn (15 years ago, 16-Feb-09, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
