Hi Bill.
I'm glad you've been to Blackpool.You can probably see my tram fascination.When you stand on the road and a double deck car passes a few inches away,it's great.I suppose $200 may seem a bit expensive in the US.But my father's LGB single deck New York trolley which is next to mine in the picture cost £460.Now you can see why I scratchbuild! I have to.

Forgot to mention, right now 100 British pounds is close to $200 US.

Troy, I certainly admire your workmanship and subject matter. I love those Briti***rams. Here's a shot I took of my wife when we were in Blackpool, which is paradise for tram/trolley lovers.
Congrats on a great project.
Regards,

Hey Troy,
Different indeed! Well done. The night shot is great and I like the nice low angle you got on the day shot too. Keep up the great work. Later eh...Brian.

Cheers everyone.It's nice to get a bit of feedback sometimes.My wife's reaction to it is "yes,it's a very nice painted wooden box with lights in it."
Best thing is the price though.Just over £100.for all the materials.
Don't know what that is in $.

It's finally finished.Now I can relax and ponder my next project.
I promise that the next picture I post will have a plastic train somewhere in the picture to widen the appeal.[}:)][(-D]
