East Penn Traction Club Modules at ETE Show - Aug. 11, 2007

The PCC car design was widely copied in Europe following WW2 - with some modifications like narrower cars, pantographs, multiple unit operations... Some discarded US ones wound up in Mexico City, Toronto and Egypt - ones in Europe were probably from the Tatra factory in czechoslovakia

I notice something like these vehicles running in Azerbaijan. I wonder if they are exported vehicles from a disused system .

Good video.

That Moscow tram is probably what a post-war Brilliner would have looked like. Look at the back window and the overall shape of the car.

HELLO

I love your traction videos and question if you have made or would consider making a training one on say hanging wire ,what kind of electronics you use to program operation ,on module building in general.

Keep up the great work .

I have modeled for years in "O" gauge but my first layout is about to happen.

Nice clip on streetcars! What kind of curve radius can an O scale PCC handle? I'm thinking of buying a few of the Corgi PCC's.

[rekelly2]

Our Club Standards specify a minimum radius of 12-1/2 inches in O Scale but there are some curves that are just under 10 inch radius.

GREAT stuff, Bob! Good to have you guys along this year!

We may be separated by an ocean (okay, maybe more like Berks Co.) but we're "brothers under the wire"! :)

Best wishes from your friends in Keystone Chapter/ETE,

Joe
