Hi train and tram folks,
I havn’t finished the advertising stickers jet but I wanted to take some pics
of my first 6-wide Train MOC ever: The old Stuttgart Tram “Linie 15”
The original is narrow gage so it was a bit complicated to hide a normal 9 V
motor and normal 9 V train wheels under the yellow cabin.

I think you have done this really well and I’m gald you showed some ‘how it
works’ photos of the underside

My main aim was to
build a good looking and realistic model, rather then a good model for
playing and driving S-curves or points. And in fact the tram only runs on
straight and curved tracks.

I don’t see that as being a problem, you just have the tram track seperate from
the rest of the track on your layout, the same as in real life.

I have to say this is definatly one to add to my favorites. I feel you have
captured the look and propertion of the real thing pretty well and although the
articulated section looks a little long it blends in well and you don’t notice
it. It is a good solution for this part of articulated trams, its something that
is always hard. I also like the structure and detailing of the tram stop, it
makes for some great ‘minifig eye’ photographs

Does someone have another idea for smaller front lights? The white space-dish
(2x2) seems to be a bit to large.
|
Looking at the picture of the real tram I think the 1x1 round chrome plate
mounted stud in mentioned elsewhere would actully be about the right size.
