Moving trolly

[mr bachmann]

Yesterdays delivery Tomix Greenmover and chassis also 2 bus chassis , one found a home in a Oxford die-cast Leyland Atlantean , also finally got a Kato tram chassis in a Oxford trolly bus , the trolly is 6 wheel so it runs slightly above the road , in real life trolly bus do not run on/in track but still pick up from 2 overhead wires , so it will run in service between the trams , must start a layout 👍

Nicely done! Note that it's spelled "trolley," not "trolly."

Nice work, you did the details well that make the van pop nicely.

It’s a bit over scale but it’s N , 1-160 , 1-148 , 1-150 , it’s just built no measurements just cut to the chassis . 
was wondering if the bus chassis front could be shortened to get the wheels forward as on older style vehicles .

nothing new it’s in the paint shop awaiting the sign writers 😁

YouTube and link it.

That really came out nice! Great scratchbuild of that shell.

 

yeah videos can get quite large for storage on our server [we pay extra to have a dedicated server account for media] and also the server is not optimized for video delivery. YouTube is the much better suited to it than we are and we allow embedding of youtube videos here on the forums and there are no ads displayed that way.

@mr bachmann that looks great!  I like the cab-over effect by having the front axle set back, looks good.
