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. http://www.britishtramsonline.co.uk/251-762.jpg

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.
