Got my foot in two canoes: Tyco and British OO. While prowling my favorite
vintage toy store, I stumbled across this Matchbox tram. It fits on N gauge
track, and is, of course, dummy. I now need to figure out how to work it
into the scene.

Nice piece Micro. Makes me think of the Brighton Beach tram from the British version of Venice Muscle Beach.

Better make sure those chickens are securely fenced in, Walt. They'll get loose and peck apart brake hoses and track crossties and any vegetation they can get their beaks on otherwise!

Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to Walt's layout. Why did all the HO scale dumpsters and
light posts vanish off ebay? Same reason.

Chops, ever think to put a N scale 0-6-0 frame under it and make it
work on an N scale track? I used an N scale 0-6-0 frame and motor
to make a switcher functional.
