Periodically there will be photos and information shared about streetcars and trolleys both real and real small.

I always get a large T short but this time it didn't work. I wore this Seashore Trolley Museum T shirt once for a minute to find out it didnt fit. I am 5'6 and about 165 lbs. My height wasnt the issue. Had i eaten more salads and less cheeseburgers... I'd love to ship it to a trolley fan who can wear it.

I am working on a N scale micro layout. I am trying to create a loop of track with about a 6" radius. First attempt didn't work out so I am trying again. Additionally, it was an exercise to play with Adobe Premiere video editing software. Work on the Petworth Traction Co. carries on throughout the night and day.

It is reasonable to assume that many of the trolley museums are having a tough time financially during the pandemic. Now might be a good time to see what their gift shops might have available.

Almost finished with my cardstock model of General Rope by Clever Models. Joey Nahas is a Washington, DC area lawn mower racer and was super helpful when I was filming On Your Mark, Get Set, MOW! which is my award winning documentary on how the sport of lawn mower racing is on the "cutting edge" in the battle against Huntington's disease. The model is O scale and it will be part of a diorama to showcase a few of my beloved Corgi streetcars.

My build of the Clever Models General Rope and Wire kit in O scale. Hopefully it will be part of my 1' x 2' trolley diorama. I haven't done any modeling for a while but I am hoping to work on this over the weekend and get started on a HO scale micro trolley layout.
