It's been requested a couple of times, so we've added a section for trams and trolleys and the like. It can be found in platform 2, close to the N-gauge and other gauges sections.

We'll moving tram related threads into the new section over the coming days/weeks/months/years/whatever. New threads about trams should of course go into the new section :)

Have fun!

Yeah, it's for models of any scale. It's really to make it easier for those interested in trams to find the tram related models/layouts.

Real life trams/streetcars/ trollies/ and so forth will continue to go under "prototype" platform 5.

While we're at why don't we pigeon and segregate everything else? Shinkansen, JR Mainline, Freight, JR Commuter, Major Private Railways, Minor Private Railways and Gadgetbahn.

The forum has a big enough animo for such a separate section. The problem is then what to classify as a tram. IMHO the Enoden shouldn't belong in here, except when the layout in point is operated without light signalling and block sections in mind... Difficult, difficult...

There is never more than one mod, and two admins on during the course of the week to manage it all.

Yup, until 1944: http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/江ノ島電鉄#路面電車か鉄道かについての議論.
