Nice layout, Billm.  It looks a lot like Boston with the stye street car and buses, plus the famous Citgo sign.

Bill - Its an example to be followed 8). Thank you for the share, and the steam and the end.
(Normally it does not bother me, but with this quality, a timed trolley stop would be like milk to wash down the "icing" already on your "very sweet cake")(As is, much better than anything I'll probably do.)

Bill; a very nice jobe-well done.  This shows what can be done on a 4X8 layout and the potential you have achieved.

Bill: you are definitely going to Model train heaven for this effort. Being a Torontonian the PCC street car brought back a lot of fond memories. The street car even looks like its in TTC colours.

Hmm, is that trolley coming up from subway at 1 minute mark a longer than typical PCC, seems to have a longer stretch of windows. Or is it an illusion from seeing so few lighted models.
Hey, the 611!
Nice layout.
Kept waiting to see people crossing the streets  ;D

Thanks for the comments. To on30gn15, the trolley is a Bowser. I painted it in the colors of the MBTA in Boston. They actually still run a trolley on a small line today. Again thanks for all the compliments.

Ahh, I thought it looked like a Boston trolley.
Although, we always called the trolley a "street car" in Boston.
