I have commissioned a limited number of the roof-mounted silver resistance boxes, as carried by Porto "Italiano" Streetcars, such as the YVT's 1776 and 1976. They are scaled from actual dimensions of the boxes carried by 1776, and once painted look very convincing, better than the scratchbuilt pair currently on my model of 1976. They may fit other trolleys and are an ideal addition to the Tyco HO scale shell.
Contact me via this site for further details. |
