very cool...! ...was that one sitting static a DSR paint scheme (Detroit)?

Cool layout but what’s with the southwest background stuff like the palm trees and the desert ? If you want a authentic looking Philadelphia layout you need cars doubled parked in the ghettos, junky’s shooting up at your Frankford market el train , and you can layout the tracks for the 15 trolley on your layout but every couple years you have to shut down Richmond street so you can rip out the tracks that you just finished a year ago with the 50 million dollar grant from the federal and state governments and only run the trolley that everyone loves from the west Philadelphia terminal to the new casino , from there they have to get off and take a bus to the Richmond street terminal less that 2 miles away . No idea why they spend all of this money ripping out the tracks on Richmond street only to relay them 5 years later with the same promises that we heard the last time they put the tracks back down on Richmond. The promise was they were going to get a whole fleet of the old presidential series trolley cars made from old parts septa still has sitting around the city and anything else needed will be made by a private company who can manufacture these 80 year old parts cheaper than we could buy them second hand if they exist , until they start ordering the parts and a set of bearings they make for septa only last 1/8 the amount of time the originals did ?

The cars look great but the passengers would have whiplash due to the non scale stops and starts. Fit some lower geared motors with heavy flywheels for scale running

What?! No comments after six years?! Anyway, I really like your layout, and your collection of trolley cars. 👍

What type of couplers did you use to achieve this?

Those cars a very amazing along with the track work, smooth as butter

🆒😎 beautiful cars 🚊🚃🚋 ding ding ding ding

Does the overhead power the train? That would be neat

I like trolleys and street cars too

Jim do you still have and use this layout? And if so any new videos?

RIP Bud 😭

Septa-plet lol!

The overhead system is really awesome.!

I like the layout, though that desert looks anything like West and Southwest Philly... I like the loops at the ends...

Tom -- what kind of radius is on those turn arounds?

I just came across your videos as a result of a Google search. Very nice! Have you had a chance to re-assemble your layout after your move? I'd love to see more!

Thanks for the compliment. The layout is currently taken apart, as I am selling my house. Many of my cars can be seen running on the East Penn Traction Cub videos of rekelly2. Check them out.

I'd love to know what the radius of your turnaround is.
