O Bradlee,
What an awesome and sweet thread! What a great community of support and interest you have gathered around this wonderful project. I'm so glad Bradcliffe is Gay Friendly.and non-homophobic. Perhaps it's like the Castro, in SF, which is serviced by a marvelous Trolley line with vintage trollies from all over the US and the world.
Your scenery looks real good, and those trees are just perfect. Your building models look top notch, sharp and crisp (evidently you have a way with balsa!), and, like the rest of the guys say, your city planning is A1. You have very interesting rolling stock. I'm very impressed!
I was wiped out when I saw that yard full of school buses. I guess you do have a few buses.
Do you have a carbarn facility planned for your trollies? I remember the old Leechmere Yards and all the MTA Trollies they contained.
Are You going to try doing a boulevard like Mass Ave. with the trollies going up and down the center strip? I always found that was one of the most endearing features of the old MTA in the 60's out on the different routes to the suburban neighborhoods of Boston. As I traveled the US I saw more of that in different cities such as Philly, and when I lived in Europe in the early 70's, I saw a lot of it also, especially in Germany and some places in Italy.
Here's wishing you the ongoing joy of traction modeling.
