I like this type of video as it usually contains lots of different and interesting locos that we don't normally see. Great review for a cute loco. Take care, Alex.
Hi, Sam! I have several of these, and several of the slightly larger PCC trolley cars. I use a couple of these Brills complete, but all the others I use the chassis under plastic tram kits. The Brills will turn quite happily around a 9 inch radius - I use a Peco N setrack section as a template! - while the PCC need a bit of filing in the truck holding holes to improve them. One thing I have found is that it is better to use the motor as a pusher as it helps to reduce the necessary radius even more. You mentioned street running: trams in UK are limited to the same 30mph as cars and so the device should do only about five or six inches along the track in a second. Keep them coming!
Fantastic review! These used to run in Philadelphia, and I've ridden on a few restored ones! The motor in the trolley was used in Bachmann's diesels in the US in the 1980's and 1990's. Small, but reliable and powerful! I have several of these, some decorated for Hershey Chocolate, another for New Orleans (where I rode the real thing!) They're really nice, and a great way to go if you want a small layout with a self-contained piece to run on it! Just the track, service shed and a street scene and you have it!
Hi Ed, thanks very much mate - yeah I was reading about them being in Philadelphia, it's great that you got to ride them though! It really is a great motor too - a pleasure to service as well! Definitely - I'd love to build a layout like that one day! All the best, Sam :)
Hi Sam. I love watching your videos and this one was good to watch as it was something different. Have you ever thought of doing a running session featuring the oldest models you have? My collection is DC and ranges from an Intercity 225 back to 1959 Triang Princess Victoria, so I'd be interested in what your oldest stock consists of. Thanks, Marc.
Hi Marc, thanks so much for your kind words mate - that's a very nice idea! I have done a tri-ang running session - I suppose those will be some of my oldest! I'll try to look into that! Cheers again, Sam :)
Interesting point about the poles on that streetcar - In real life, they are very much manual and require the trailing (rear) pole up, and the other one down. Hence why most have pantographs now.
+Sam'sTrains Technically speaking, yes, although for the streetcar line I have on my layout, which doesn't turn around or form a loop, I've left both alone. Essentially, if one of the poles is being 'pushed', there is a sporting chance of it going the wrong way over a set of points, while the train itself carries on the other line - Not a fun experience! However for some interurban cars with only one pole at the rear (As they went between cities and had turning facilities) they tended to have little wheels on the poles, so that if they did reverse, it wouldn't be as damaging to the overhead wire. Although if the overhead points are working correctly, it would still work I suppose, I have seen it done before. And I am very jealous of the overhead turning triangles that were used on British tramways! I've nearly been picked up trying to turn a pole by hand. Again, that's why the modern electrics have pantographs :P
Dont know if you guys cares but if you're bored like me during the covid times then you can stream pretty much all the new movies and series on instaflixxer. Been streaming with my girlfriend for the last few months :)
haha fantastic review today mate :) a very unusual little tram today!! also as it would appear you seem to have a problem on your bridge ;)-all the best mate :)
I glad to see something from Philadelphia, that's where I was born, the silhouettes are a typical American model train detail that goes back to post ww2 Lionel o gauge
That's good to hear - yes I really enjoyed getting something from the US! Oh right, I didn't know it went back as far as that... that's pretty cool! Thanks for watching, Sam :)
You know, Knoxville, (the town I live and was born in) used to have a streetcar line. First run in 1890 by steam tram like locomotives from Baldwin Locomotive Works and later electric trolleys in 1905. It last operated on August 1st, 1947. Sadly, the trolley line is completely gone today.
Wow! Thanks for the info on that - that's the same with many trolley lines sadly! There is one at a museum near us, and I've ridden some of their early C20th trams! Many thanks mate, Sam :)
Novelty item at 5:25 Is that the hand cart on the bridge? Yep. Good video Sam, thanks for suggesting I check this out. I'd love to see that Trolley more. Maybe add a coupler so it can hall stuff? I'm sure that'd still be prototypical. Trolleys were known to haul stuff on occasion.
I have the brown and green one of these,I have also got the double trailer car one,I have also got the new Bachman double decker's Thanks Jack - class05
I do like the oddities, almost as good at the legendary 'gandy dancer'. They used to have trams like this in Montreal years ago, one is still left in St. Constant, in the railway museum. The silhouettes are a great idea and I used something similar with my 'Town and Country' display at a cat show a few years ago. I used LED's in side the 'pub' and the figures looked good. I was robbed mind you - third! I have almost got over it now.
Thanks Ian... haha yeah almost, but never as good as the gandy dancer.... even though mine's packed up now! Yeah it is a very good idea - and LEDs definitely would improve this! You were robbed? What happened there mate? :( All the best, Sam :)
I am always dedicated to winning. I put everything into this display and still did not win. There is a prize for the best decorated pen and I thought I had it 'in the bag'. I am in the Club 1909 completion for photographs taken wearing Canadiens clothing in odd places with a picture taken at Peenemunde with a V2 in the background.
Keep hold of that. Very hard to get hold of. I actually got hold of a n guage bachmann pcc trolley for the same price in a small shop. I wish they would continue doing trams. Unfortunately you need a tramway layout for it to look right Sam XD
Thank you, I will do - I didn't realise these were rare! Yeah it'd be nice to see some more trams, but agreed - it looks a bit odd on my layout, lol ;D Thanks for watching, Sam :)
Yeah the only places you can find them is 2nd hand or the odd one left in a shop warehouse they find. Bachmann only have 1 set of spares for your model left so look after the gears. I know they have a reputation of splitting so if it starts playing up that's the problem. Yours looks to be running amazing though. I know a guy who would buy loads and cut and re-create the bodies and paint them to make loads of different trams and used a live overhead. Sorry for going nerd overload :3
3:42 It would've been better if they put some window plastic so you won't be able to see the interior, like on their PCC streetcars! 4:12 you could've ran the passenger-cooking pacer! Maybe an American steam loco, since it's an American car! 6:35 you managed to fit that in really nice!
Hi mate, Yep that would have worked well too! Lol! The cooking pacer is getting ready for an appearance soon - so don't worry ;D haha yeah - good old Bullman! Thanks for watching, Sam :)
okay now i want to get back into model trains with this cool model! is it a british one or a calafornia one? either way its awsome hope that hornby make more of these!
That's great - you definitely should do!! I think this is based on the ones that were made in Phili! Yeah Hornby could make some British ones - that'd be awesome! Thanks for watching, Sam :)
The trolley cart riddle came alive also I think I saw a trolley cart riddle meme where first it was the trolley car riddle then it multi track drifts so it's an oh baby a six in one oh yeah
Hi David, thanks a lot! No sadly I don't do N gauge, since I've had no experience with them sadly :/ Sorry about that mate, I'd be willing to try though, if you want me to?? All the best, Sam :)
Gandy Dancers don't go on footbridges. Bullman decided to let the tram car push him along. Now I liked seeing the tram car running, but you caused me to bewail something: "No fair! Little Tram Car gets to run, but steam engines don't! It's no fun at all without steamies!"
try getting a locomotive (british or american) that uses a smoke unit and do a review on it. it will be cool and would show more realism to your realistic railway
hmm!! not a Tram person myself! but.. i like it! looks like something that we use!!! our one is called mable! she lives in wanganui NZ (just a fun fact for you :D ) Muffin Man (sam :D )
Cool tram model Sam, I've seen a couple of these in San Francisco, I hate to be that guy but I couldn't send a pm, if you could on your own time, could you please put the measurements in your reply
wait whats the diference with trolleys and trams (and about that smoke unit from my last comment it might be broken or has a handy cap. nnnnnnnnoooooooo meh money)(and yes i want a spot of most comented :3)(and i think you realy like that cow on a flat bed)
Hi Hugo - I don't think there's really any difference - just that they were called trams in the UK, and trolleys in the USA - I assume! That's okay mate, lol - good luck ;D Cheers mate, Sam :)
This is the Bachmann most of the world knows:Cheap, simple, toy-like.There is a Bachmann "Silver Series" available, that is much better in detail and quality, but it coasts 3 or 4 times the price of the regular "white boxed" Bachmann models, but still not as good as a new Life-like, or Walthers H0 trains, for similar price.
I know there is the Bachmann Spectrum, but i have Mixed experiences with them, sometimes it is extremely good sometimes just a bit better than the regular ones.
haha is that so? Yeah, I must agree actually - most of that white boxed stuff is pretty cheap, but the British models they make are very good! Thanks a lot for the info on that - I'll bear that in mind! Cheers, Sam :)
Well... it won't work on the track any more, so that's the best place for it ;) lol just kidding - it was just an easter egg for today :3 Cheers, Sam :)
I like this type of video as it usually contains lots of different and interesting locos that we don't normally see. Great review for a cute loco. Take care, Alex.
Thanks so much Alex - yeah that's why I like making them so much! Really glad you liked it mate,

Sounds great Peter - I can see these chassis being very handy actually - good size!!
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
I wasn't expecting this today!! I love it, very interesting! Great video as always Sam :)
haha I know... it's a weird one! Gad you liked it anyhow,
All the best,
Sam :)

Could you please tell me what the music at the beginning is? I've been looking everywhere for it but can't find it.
Hi mate, I don't remember the name of this one now - sorry about that! :(
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Sam'sTrains Not an issue, turns out siri knows it :)
Why is it that I always end up seeing your videos 1 minute after you upload? Haha! Can't wait to watch!
haha!! Well that's very kind of you mate - I really appreciate that!
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
Interesting point about the poles on that streetcar - In real life, they are very much manual and require the trailing (rear) pole up, and the other one down.
Hence why most have pantographs now.
Oh really?? So it's wrong that they should both be raised then??
Thanks very much for the info!
Cheers,
Sam :)

Okay mate, thanks for that! Blimey - even this is an interesting subject! I'd love to learn more about trams now! :D
Cheers again,
Sam :)
Sam'sTrains Thank you! Side effect of volunteering at a museum that runs them I guess.
I was looking at getting one of these to turn it into one of the old Saskatoon trams, seems like it will be a good fit
Would make a good tramway adding life between shops houses etc in the right circumstance.
Yeah it really would - I'd love to incorporate something like that into a proper layout one day!
All the best,
Sam :)
Dont know if you guys cares but if you're bored like me during the covid times then you can stream pretty much all the new movies and series on instaflixxer. Been streaming with my girlfriend for the last few months :)
@Fisher Junior Yup, I've been using InstaFlixxer for months myself =)
That light inside looks beautiful!
It does actually - I'm really glad they included it!
Cheers,
Sam :)
Also great video love the express series amazing model
Thanks so much - I really enjoy making these videos too!
All the best,
Sam :)
Very nice little model, with a little bit of modification it could look like a British tram. Great review .......James.
Thanks James - that's a good point - I wonder whether anyone's ever tried that??
Cheers,
Sam :)
Hi Sam great little tram that, I will look out for one my self thanks for posting Dave
Many thanks Dave - yes they're very good powerful little things!
All the best,
Sam :)
haha fantastic review today mate :) a very unusual little tram today!! also as it would appear you seem to have a problem on your bridge ;)-all the best mate :)
Thanks so much - really glad you enjoyed that! haha! Well I don't know how that got there ;)
Cheers,
Sam :)
Happy 8k subscribers special!!
Good job sam
Thanks so much! Really glad you liked it,
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
I glad to see something from Philadelphia, that's where I was born, the silhouettes are a typical American model train detail that goes back to post ww2 Lionel o gauge
That's good to hear - yes I really enjoyed getting something from the US! Oh right, I didn't know it went back as far as that... that's pretty cool!

Awesome model, just a small boxy thing I guess ;) Anyway great video Sam keep it up!
Thanks a lot! Yep that's basically it, lol! Really glad you liked it anyway,
Cheers,
Sam :)
Don't see many trolleys running around much now days great review by the way
Nope not really - it's probably just museums now :(
Oh well - really glad you liked the review!
Cheers,
Sam :)
Novelty item at 5:25 Is that the hand cart on the bridge? Yep. Good video Sam, thanks for suggesting I check this out. I'd love to see that Trolley more. Maybe add a coupler so it can hall stuff? I'm sure that'd still be prototypical. Trolleys were known to haul stuff on occasion.
haha well spotted Patrick! Yeah a coupler would be a good idea - though there's not much power behind this one!
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
I got one of these for 20 American dollars and I added a loop of track raised up on risers and now I have a trolly line on my layout.
That's fantastic - what a great idea!! :D
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Always enjoy your videos mate.
That's very kind of you to say - thanks very much!
Glad you enjoyed it,
Sam :)
Sam'sTrains I love trains. Especially steamies.
I have the brown and green one of these,I have also got the double trailer car one,I have also got the new Bachman double decker's
Thanks
Jack - class05
Hi Jack! That's very cool - yeah I really like this, I might have to look at getting those too!
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
when i saw the light inside, it reminded me of the passenger-cooking DMU. so im calling it passenger cooker jr. LOL
haha!! I'm thinking of adding LEDs to this too... so it really would be another cooker then ;D
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
A Hah, i saw your gandy dancer on the footbridge :)
Also Sam if your going to get Toby then you can run the trolley as well :D
haha! Very well spotted! Yes that's true - I really should try to get a toby! :D
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
Way to keep things new and interesting!
Thanks!! I thought it might be cool to show this!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
That Cheeky Bullmen had to have his way the Brill Trolley is awsome!!!!
haha yeah! He wasn't too sure how to couple to it though ;D
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Bit of a novelty vehicle today sam. I like it!
Yeah definitely! Glad you liked it anyway! :D
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
Interesting to see something different. Keep it up. :)
Thanks very much mate - really glad you found it interesting!
All the best,
Sam :)
Was that the Gandy Dancer on the Foot bridge? Haha! Nice work!
Your mate
Sam :D
haha well spotted Sam, and glad you enjoyed it! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Interesting model…it would be nice for manufacturers to produce UK trams, especially the old double decker ones!!
Oh yeah! That would be really nice - maybe they will one day? I'd love a Blackpool tram!
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
Hi Sam, I loved this, but I am a big fan of the unusual, and at a fantastic price of £20...Simon
Hi Simon, me too mate - that's why I had to get this one! Glad you enjoyed it!
Cheers,

Thanks a lot Jacob, glad you enjoyed this one anyway!

Hello Sam, l know you have some lovely trains Sam, but l think that is my favorite, thank-you
Hi! Thanks so much for the comment - so glad you liked the tram, it certainly is a lovely piece!
Thanks for watching,

yay, more bachmann
Yeah! Got to love Bachmann! :3
Hope you enjoy it,
Sam :)
Lovely tram! I have a on gauge W5 Class tram that runs quite slowly like that one anyway nice video from Australia Leo Spruch
Hi Leo, thanks a lot for the comment - that sounds fantastic, always lovely when they run nice and slow!
Many thanks for watching,
Sam :)
lovely stunning model
Thanks Adi - quite nice for a change anyway!
All the best,
Sam :)
Hi Sam, brill trolley, simply Brill. Cheers John.
haha! Thanks John - that's the only way to describe it ;)
Cheers,
Sam :)
3:42 It would've been better if they put some window plastic so you won't be able to see the interior, like on their PCC streetcars!
4:12 you could've ran the passenger-cooking pacer! Maybe an American steam loco, since it's an American car!
6:35 you managed to fit that in really nice!
Hi mate,
Yep that would have worked well too!
Lol! The cooking pacer is getting ready for an appearance soon - so don't worry ;D
haha yeah - good old Bullman!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
okay now i want to get back into model trains with this cool model! is it a british one or a calafornia one? either way its awsome hope that hornby make more of these!
That's great - you definitely should do!! I think this is based on the ones that were made in Phili! Yeah Hornby could make some British ones - that'd be awesome!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
Now that is one cute trolley!
Thanks Oskar, yeah it is - I had to get that one! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Great review Sam my friend has this!
Thanks so much! That's cool - they're great little things!
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
This is a beautiful trolley
I agree Anthony! :D
Amazing review also I have a bachmann electric tram model
Thanks so much! Very cool - which colour is it?? :3
Cheers,
Sam :)
Sam'sTrains it's a birkenhead tramway tram and it's half cream and half brown
and a fact down south in Christchurch there are tram galas
Wow really?! I'd love that!! :D
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
yes i bet you would they are cool
The trolley cart riddle came alive also I think I saw a trolley cart riddle meme where first it was the trolley car riddle then it multi track drifts so it's an oh baby a six in one oh yeah
haha!! ;D
I love trams/trolleys!
Thanks! Me too - they're very cool for a change!
Cheers,
Sam :)
Hey Sam just saw this in a magazine. How good is it for the price
Hi! For my price of £20, it is very very good - how much was it advertised for in the magazine??
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
I have the more modern version but mine makes a horrible screeching sound when you give it too much throttle
Looks great
Do you do n gauge locomotives on your servicing thing on ebay
Hi David, thanks a lot! No sadly I don't do N gauge, since I've had no experience with them sadly :/
Sorry about that mate, I'd be willing to try though, if you want me to??
All the best,
Sam :)
Just found this vid.
You should have ran it in conjunction with the Disneyland crossbench trailer a la Manx electric railway
I have this but in n scale and min is geared so fast for some reason
Is that the Candydancer on the Footbridge 0:12?!😂
haha......... maybe ;D
This Is Really Cool!
I Don't Suppose You Really Have A lot Of Trams, But Yeah Still Cool
Thanks so much! Yeah this is my only tram at the moment - I would like more though!! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
You're Welcome!
great video Sam ;)
Thanks Alfie, glad you enjoyed it!
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
lovely and very different item
Thanks Kevin, glad you enjoyed it for a change!
All the best,
Sam :)
i did thank you
Gandy Dancers don't go on footbridges. Bullman decided to let the tram car push him along. Now I liked seeing the tram car running, but you caused me to bewail something:
"No fair! Little Tram Car gets to run, but steam engines don't! It's no fun at all without steamies!"
You're right of course Kelly - I apologise unreservedly!
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
Hi Sam, do you like the Bachmann locomotive?
Noah :)
HI Noah, yeah I do quite like this one- it's a very good runner!
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
you should try to get a bachman pcc trolley there nice
Ooh are they?? I'll have a look out for one of those - thanks! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Oh something electric. I was going to ask if you'd ever consider getting some overhead cables and having your railway be electric
Yeah! That would be cool - I can't fit them to my scenic sections now though :(
Ah well - I run mostly steam anyway! :3
Cheers,
Sam :)
I saw the Gandy dancer on the foot bridge
haha! Well done - you spotted the easter egg then! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
Hello sam got a idea while whatching your video are you going to do more reviews on trams would be good to see and fun
Hi Mark, I'd love to get some more trams - I think that's definitely a good idea! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)
try getting a locomotive (british or american) that uses a smoke unit and do a review on it. it will be cool and would show more realism to your realistic railway
Cool idea! I've actually got a GS-4 daylight loco which has one- so I'll review that soon! :3
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
I have one of those
Awesome! They're pretty cool aren't they? :3
Cheers,
Sam :)
Sam'sTrains remember me from last ep
hmm!! not a Tram person myself! but.. i like it! looks like something that we use!!! our one is called mable!
she lives in wanganui NZ (just a fun fact for you :D )
Muffin Man (sam :D )
Oh that's very awesome! I'll have to look into that one - thanks Sam! :D
Thanks for watching - Sam :)
did you put the gande dancer on the foot bridge ?
Mmayybeee?? ;D
Cool little item that, and a BARGAIN! Seems to lean at one end?
Thanks a lot! Yeah it was a fab price!! I've not noticed the leaning, but I'll keep an eye out for that,
Cheers matey,
Sam :)
Wow 👍
Thanks for watching, Sam :)
This was brill !!!
haha! Thanks a lot - it is a brill little trolly ;D
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
That tram so cute
Yeah it really is! It's a great little thing isn't it?? :3
Thanks for watching,
Sam :)
It looks like a san francisco Trolley. Do you agree?
Yeah it does a little bit - I've never seen one in real life though!
All the best,
Sam :)
I have a Blackpool balloon tram but it is stationary and I want to motorise it. But I'm not to sure how to
Hmmm yeah - they're very fiddly aren't they? Maybe look for a kit, you could use the chassis from it maybe??
Cheers,
Sam :)
Hello
Hello!
I guess you could say this was a brill-iant review !
haha!! Well thanks for your brill-iant comment!
Much appreciated mate,
Sam :)
great for the other side of the station - the bit that has NO rails................. naarta miin ??
haha!
That will be great for London layout annoying to make the right call the London thameside
Yes that'd be awesome!! ;D
It So Good To Be A Coach
haha is it?! I've never been one myself ;D
Nice. : ) do you know where I could buy one from?
Thanks Luke! I'm not too sure mate - I think keeping an eye on Ebay is your best bet!
Cheers,
Sam :)
Thanks. : )
Oohhhh cool
Thanks! Hope you enjoyed it!
Sam :)
that is soooooooooooooo beautiful!
I like trains
haha thanks a lot
me too ;D
6:38
Are you alright Sam? :0
Bullman by the way.
haha yeah - I couldn't help but laugh at that!
Well spotted... moo! :D
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
I have of these trams in n gauge but both are broken and full of scenery grass I think they completely gone as in disrepair
Awhh that's a shame :(
Oh well - quite nice for display pieces maybe??
All the best,
Sam :)
do you have any more trams if so please do a tram running session if not can you please buy some and do some more unboxing of them thanks
Hi! No this is my only tram at the moment - but I would love to get more, and a running session with them would be awesome! :D
All the best,
Sam :)
Thanks

Cool tram model Sam, I've seen a couple of these in San Francisco, I hate to be that guy but I couldn't send a pm, if you could on your own time, could you please put the measurements in your reply
Thanks very much! Oh cool - so they ran there too did they? Yeah sure - which loco did you want again??
Cheers,
Sam :)
Sam'sTrains yea, I think they mostly run in San Francisco, the 0-6-0 chassis
you can run toby the tram if you have it
Yeah that's a good point - I need to get a toby! :D
Cheers,
Sam :)

Thanks for watching,

wait whats the diference with trolleys and trams (and about that smoke unit from my last comment it might be broken or has a handy cap. nnnnnnnnoooooooo meh money)(and yes i want a spot of most comented :3)(and i think you realy like that cow on a flat bed)
Hi Hugo - I don't think there's really any difference - just that they were called trams in the UK, and trolleys in the USA - I assume! That's okay mate, lol - good luck ;D
Cheers mate,
Sam :)
It’s BRILLiant! ;)

You should do an American running session
I should - that'd be awesome! :D
Thanks for watching,

This is the Bachmann most of the world knows:Cheap, simple, toy-like.There is a Bachmann "Silver Series" available, that is much better in detail and quality, but it coasts 3 or 4 times the price of the regular "white boxed" Bachmann models, but still not as good as a new Life-like, or Walthers H0 trains, for similar price.
I know there is the Bachmann Spectrum, but i have Mixed experiences with them, sometimes it is extremely good sometimes just a bit better than the regular ones.
haha is that so? Yeah, I must agree actually - most of that white boxed stuff is pretty cheap, but the British models they make are very good!
Thanks a lot for the info on that - I'll bear that in mind!
Cheers,
Sam :)
