[moc] Bern Steam Tram

Recommended Posts

I was bored, and this is silly, but I figured I would share. It is powered, and designed to run on 4w track.

Most models of it feature those distinctive windows, and - assuming they must of been there at some point (and given that I kind of like them) - I went with that design.

Beautiful realistic model. I just checked on their site (sorry in German): the prototype has/had these front windows. the weird thing is that it looks as if it only has them in the front. Go figure...

This is a really good model.  I know Bern reasonably well, but in all my time in the City, I never saw the steam tram run.  It’s much nicer than the new stuff, although it would be very cold in the winter.

Spectacular steam tram!!! :thumbup:

The 2x3x1 windows used as side covers are a perfect match :sweet: - and the handrail is really a nice touch. A very clean design. Frontpage fully deserved!!!

 

Two "fun facts": 

1) We had something similar here in Milan too! It's called "Gamba De Legn" (Wooden Leg).

2) The second photo of the prototype you posted was the exact one that Inspired me for an old Moc I designed years ago!
