Hi Tim,
Thanks, I like the way it turned out, and it wasn't even painful to
make. It was one of those rare models that just came to me (I was, of
course, basing the design on a trolley car that I have ridden on).
Anyway, the camera is in there, and if you look closely you can see
it in front of Mr. Dursley. In the side view it is actually pretty
obvious that there is something in there. I had to remove a few seats to
fit the camera in and I try to hid that fact by packing some minifigs in
around the camera. The electronics are also in there. They are tucked
away on the bottom of the trolley car.
I just finished a page with some pictures that show the camera and
the electronics. It is here

Thanks again Tim,
Chris

| (...) Hi Chris, This trolley is stunning and knowing it can take a camera makes it better still. Is the camera in there in these shots or do you have to remove stuff to add it? Tim (18 years ago, 28-Aug-06, to lugnet.trains)
