VICTORIA_STREET: December 2015

That time of the year again.

As per usual at this time of the year, the annual Christmas card from Victoria Street.

For some people have to work on Christmas Day.

Enjoy the season, be safe, try not to eat and/or drink too much, and who knows, those that have been good this year may do better than a lump of coal.

From under the sparkly overhead wires.

VICTORIA_ST

A small model tramway layout loosely based on the Melbourne Metropolitan Tramway Board (MMTB). OO scale with a few HO blow ins, now running DCC for prototypical tight headways and lighting options.

Originally set up as a test track, like all layouts it evolved into some thing more, with a slight west suburban slant towards its location.

The modules are only 57cm long by 19cm deep, now there are seven modules, (railway station and racecourse, the original modules), another module is the undecorated fiddle yard ( now the Ammo Factory module), and the two later modules are (the railway gates and the bend, Epsom Rd), plus the latest instalments (The Junction and the Depot).

Victoria St can run as an end of line tramway, a heritage/regional (SEC) line, and a shuttle passenger service with short shunting at the station to service extra punters for the racecourse to a time table run to a 3:1 .

Enjoy, Glenn
