Around the town by tram

A tour around my 1/76 scale OO gauge London tramway layout. The video shows the general arrangement of this shelf-based layout. Track is PECO streamline with small radius points built into a card road surface. The tramcars are built from Tower Models plastic kits. Buildings on the layout are from the Kingsway Models range of card building kits or are modifications thereof. Although not a faithful model of any particular place the layout depicts a fictional part of Tooting , South London in around 1950. Much of the London tramway system ran using the conduit method of picking up electric power where a 'plough' underneath the car ran in a slot between the running rails. This was expensive to build and maintain but did away with the need for unsightly overhead wires. The last London trams ran in July 1952.
