it is a very beautifull work, Thanks a lot. Sure it is much more easy to achieve that slow prototype-like operation in HO scale. We clean our home tramway tracks once a month with the light sandpaper and we oil the gear once in 4 monthes and it works really slowly.
I'll answer for Eddy who built the layout but no, current is drawn from the rails. Considering this is in N it's a testimony to the operator's cleansing skills in that the tiny motors, wheels and track have to be kept absolutely immaculate in order for the layout to run smoothly.
being christmas and how gorgeous this N scale city is with the tram I could watch it all day long

These are great models, I'd never have guessed that these were made out of the cheap diecast typhoo tram I must dig mine out!!

It's the slow movement of Beethoven's 5th Piano Concerto - The Emperor.

I honestly can't remember - Beethoven's something other I think - but I fully expect to stand corrected (as the man in orthopaedic shoes said).

Wonderful. You are not actually picking up current from the cantenary, are you.
