They're "streamlined" enough to pass for modern, and there is sufficient justification for running them on a 1980's-present layout. <br /> <br />And the allure of 6" minimum radius (in HO!) is strong... <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Yea but those PCC's aren't quite modern enough for me, but i did find a Boeing LRV in England that might do till i can get a decent US one. Also thinking of adding a 2-car subway set to run around on an elevated track alongs side the fast communter trains. <br /> <br />Jay.
