Hey Y’all;
Have been wanting to do large scale traction for some time. Initially thought about scratchbuilding some kind of body on some power block.
In the end, today ordered Hartland Locomotive Works unlettered Orange Sparky with pantograph.
May eventually get the red one lettered for Pacific Electric with pole.
Going to letter Sparky for my freelance HO trolley company “Willow Creek Traction”.
Think the frosted windows will be replaced with clear material if I can figure out how to get the body off after it arrives.
And it will need a motorman in there too.
Not having a garden, will build narrow shelf along apartment living room wall to display and drive the thing.
Ought to be much easier to build G scale trolley wire than HO, ya know!
I love the sound of pole or pans sliding along the wire!
