 Runs nice. "Street" is bathtub caulk painted black plastered over code 100 flex track. Radius is about 9 inches. Grooves were then routed out with a drill bit until the flanges cleared.

Hi Jeff, Nice trolley. Just thought you should know, this post belongs in the Lose Ends forum. This is the OTW series which is dedicated to one post each week for either a locomotive, freight/box car, accessory, building or set.
Sincerely,
Sean

Thank you the correction, and my apologies as I am not clear exactly how the OTW thing works. If you would clarify, for me, how exactly an OTW submission is to be made, I will be most happy to follow your guidance. Until then, I will hold off on OTW postings until I get this figured out.

| Very nice Tyco Trolley you have. They were almost as good as Bachmann trolleys back then. This trolley can belong in the LOTW since it is a type of locomotive albeit a single unit without much pulling power. I would wait till Sunday March 16 at 12:01AM and re-edit your post to change the wording from Tyco trolley to LOTW Mar 16 - Mar 22, 2014 in the Subject field.

Don't post your locomotive as a separate LOTW. Post it into the LOTW thread instead of making your own.

LOTW: Locomotive Or Trolley Week 
John
I don't have a one track mind. It depends on the turn-out. "I love your catenary!" Is that a power-trip or just another pick-up line?

If you don't know what LOTW stands for, it means Locomotive Of The Week. I know you were just joking though.
