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.

What a great design and gesture by you, James! It is stuff like this that
really <ahem> builds community spirit! I am going to do my best to actually
build this MOC and always display it on the TCLTC layout as a tribute to your
contribution.
Actually, come to think of it, I have on permanent display on the TCLTC layout a
version of the Spamcake Diner™ (created by Tom
McDonald), and a “Schleim” version of your
WWYM tour truck by
Holger (HoMa’s version,
Mine) for
similar reasons.
Thanks for sharing, James!
