Trams can also say a lot about their city on a model railway, which is actually always much larger than the part shown. They liven up the station forecourt and connect it with the surrounding area. Unfortunately, trams also take up a lot of space. Which is why on model railway layouts they often only drive around the old town once, stop at the station, and drive around the old town again. If they even exist there. If you try to depict a tram network at least partially, it quickly becomes extensive. As you can see here in the idea sketch of Thorsten's Moba world: • Model railway: Planning part 88 - Streets... The legendary tram system by Alfred Spühr is nice and compact, however. Nevertheless, it is a life's work that fills an entire room even without the typical model railway around it. • Model tram Spühringen. German... Because space is so tight on model railways, I'm making a suggestion here that takes up even less space than the circle around the old town, but is much more varied. I found the basis in Würzburg. And there are also many beautiful pictures of the tram in various cities. By the way, I discuss a Märklin car every week in an English-speaking Facebook group. Sometimes with a focus on Märklin, sometimes with a focus on the German Federal Railway, and sometimes more in the direction of the economic miracle years: / 100035487098922 Images used (mostly pixabay): “Tramway”: Silviu on the street; Bremen: Maria Zabawa; Würzburg: roehrensee; Berlin: Kuller Keks; “Road Train”: Erich Westendarp; Reims: David Mark; Würzburg: roehrensee; Tram snake: Tomasz; Basel: Markus Krebs; Budapest: Arunas Kazakevicius; Prague: Ödeldödel; Duewag train: Achim Scholty; Museum train: David Mark; Party train: Michael Römer; Old tram: Pureshot; Dresden: Nikolay; Budapest: Q K.
