Here are (URL) three Streamliner style passenger cars>, including a basic passenger car, dome car, and end-of-train observation car.

--snip-- Hi Luca, (...) Yes I completely agree. (...) I agree about the grey windows. Maybe black would work better for a non-transparent colour but dark grey looks too coloured to me for a window. (...) I love these ones. I stole the window idea (...) (18 years ago, 26-Jan-07, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Hi Luca, I think that Prague trams are not exactly white. See this photo (URL) don't like trams so even though I lived in Prague for almost 10 years, I can count on my fingers how many times I used this loud beast :o) OTOH I know that getting (...) (18 years ago, 26-Jan-07, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Thanks for the compliments too :-) I know the Manchester tram. It is a different version of Turin ML 7000. The TPR 5000 has a very close design with the difference that it is partial low flor. The modern trams are most similar each others, but (...) (18 years ago, 26-Jan-07, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Thanks very much for the compliments. I also have a CAD version so I may be able to render a Prague version. I'll certainly think about it for when I have some spare time. Your Turin TPR-500 is probably my favourite tram made. You captured the (...) (18 years ago, 26-Jan-07, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Hi Tim, really a nice work (this is said from a tramways expert!). I like the front side that is typical of the eastern Europe old tramways. I would like to see a Praha (Prague) version, red and white, maybe with the trailer car. Think about (...) (18 years ago, 25-Jan-07, to lugnet.trains)

Oh, I also forgot to mention.... TLG had a habit of putting lots of their early prototype items into production (like the red and black garage doors). And they often didn't keep examples of these items in their archives. So today, many of these rare (...) (18 years ago, 25-Jan-07, to lugnet.trains)

Thanks for the pics Luca! Interestingly enough this topic recently came up for discussion. I have a 1:87 scale car garage (first released November 1961) with a red door (Phil Traviss of UK also has one). Even though all catalogs of the early 1960's (...) (18 years ago, 25-Jan-07, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Don't get me started on those stupid bricks. They should fit. There is absolutely no reason for them not to but they don't fit quite right. A combination of the curves oversensitivity and the slight curve in the window parts. It took me ages (...) (18 years ago, 25-Jan-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
