Tram or streetcar

[Kev Green]

Hi having rebuilt my layout I think I now have room to put in a tram or streetcar on a returning straight section. Because it’s returning I can’t use a pole so any suggestions for one with a pantograph?

Fit a pantograph to a Bachmann tram or fit a trolley reverser?

I fitted a pantograph to my Bachmann tram, so it was bi-directional....

You could of course fit a bow collector that could be made to flip over when the tram changes direction.

That's a bit woke

By Bachmann tram has a trolley-pole, but it swings both-ways!

This is the reason pantographs exist!

I expected this thread to be about terminology.

Very easy to fit a panto to a Bachmann tram. You can either raise the panto above the gangplank of cut the middle section of the gangplank out and screw direct to the roof.
