- NJS Club Members Chet Moore and Richard Vible, along with President (at the time) Larry Loyko set up an HO Trolley layout at the Shore Mall Holiday Display for the years of 2010-2011. This layout is powered off of the overhead trolley wire. eNjoy!

What a super layout, I do like the PCC cars.
The operator of that PCC car would be suspended in a flash for going around that loop and through all that special work at such high speed. Otherwise, a brilliant little film. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing it.
Ironically the person operating the car at the time was a retired motorman for PTC and SEPTA. He has since passed on, but the video remains. Thanks for watching!
Nice you showed the “bloopers” as well. Happens every where 🤗😁
Love from Amsterdam
Thanks! Glad you eNjoyed!
Loved this video. Very realistic trackwork and overhead wire operation. Nice billboard with Reddy Kilowatt. Great night time operation too. Liked how you had cars representing the 19th century, early 20th century and modern PCC. Great work!
Marvellous. Beautiful model making. The night scene was great too. Love the hand of God at the end. Thank you for your video. Guy (from France)
Very nice layout. In fact.....BEAUTIFUL! But you need people inside the trolleys. I loved the Reddy Kilowatt sign. Those little touches make a big difference.
You guys did a FANTASTIC JOB modeling the trolley system !!!!!! The street work with the switches is marvelous. I LOVE trolleys, missed them in Brooklyn by 3 years. Now retired I would love to build a layout but the hands don't work like they used to. Keep up the GREAT WORK.
Really beautiful. I could watch this all night long.
Thanks! Glad you eNjoyed!
Love this, great production with the music and the trolleys rolling through the streets and then the realistic outtakes at the end! Could sure learn a lot from the creators of this layout.
Thanks! Glad you eNjoyed!
Unfortunately one of the creators has since passed on, one is our club president, and one somewhat recently moved to South Dakota.
Great layout! Looking at the tight turns I was reminded of the signs at North Station, Boston that warned pedestrians to beware of the swing of the cars around the curve
this was a very relaxing video lol
Thanks! Glad you eNjoyed!
BRAVO ❤ A GREAT PIECE OF WORK
Great video and great music!
That’s a fun video. Now I’m contemplating an automated traction layout.
funny if one was the Neighborhood Trolley 😉
love trollies/LRVs 😍
You had to put a lot of time in on such a great display.....great job
Yes, this display was created over the course of years of hard work. Thanks for watching!
A very nice video and layout. I have plans to expand my own HO scale layout, and while I don't have much room for trolleys, I am proud to be from a city that takes pride in its own trolley fleet.
Thanks. Glad you eNjoyed!
This layout is very well done. Glad it was able to be shown to the world.
@@NJSntrak You're quite welcome :).
An excellent and very realistic video.
Thanks! Glad you eNjoyed!
I used to remember chet in his buddies and the trolleys and it was pretty cool as a kid never know whatever happened to Chet's layout which this looks really nice
Thanks for watching! As far as we know, Chet still has this layout, but we have not seen it since Richard's passing.
Love Traction...😎
Very nice..........yessss
It looks like the Bustleton Ave repair center .
Very nice display!!! How did you do the brick roadwork for the trolley tracks. I am considering a small trolley layout and would love this detailed.
I am not sure, honestly. I would ask, however the three folks who made this layout are in very different places now, one passed since the making of this video, one has moved to South Dakota, and the other is primarily in to trolley modules and we do not see him as much.
Excellently modeled and operating, HO scale layout!
Very nice background music as well.
Though it's 12 years later, but I have a question regarding the make of those street lights...
Are those some sort of Walters street lights?
I'd like to purchase them if they're still available now.
I am not sure and am not easily able to get in touch with the builders of this layout, sorry.
A working catenary? Big brass ones on youse guyz! That's a spectacular layout especially with the night run. Are the cobblestones prefab or laid and carved? Thanks!
The layout is powered by the trolley wire. I am not sure on how the cobblestones were done. One individual who built this passed away, another is in South Dakota now, and the third is hard to get a hold of. We'll see if we can get an answer.
Youz guys is something I would always say only to be corrected by my dad with “ Hughes is a dead chief justice of the Supreme Court . There’s only one city that people say that phrase and it Philadelphia. Actually it can be narrowed down to a few neighborhoods along the river and at an infamous intersection that has the letter’s K&A in its spelling. I’m talking about that neighborhood when everyone I knew as a kid still had a grand parent who spoke with an Irish Brogue; not the disgusting hell hole it’s become today . It breaks my heart seeing my church that woke me up every morning at 6am playing the morning bells for the first mass of the day , sitting a burned out shell of its self .
Very nice layout! Just curious, are these trolleys powered by the overhead wires or through the track? Thanks!
Thanks! The trolleys are powered by the overhead. The blooper at 8:57 shows one of the cars losing overhead connection.
Is Zootin' Cool! --dunc
May we know the dimensions of the layout please?
This is not a layout we currently have access to, and we cannot ask the owner as he recently passed away, so we are unsure of the exact measurements, but it is roughly 2' x 6' if memory serves.
How does it run so smooth
It is powered by the overhead wire, so it has less dirt buildup than traditional rail powered track.
How were you able to get the overhead wire and the Pantagraph to touch each other like that? Again the wiring had me impressed how it kept the illusion as it moved
Not an illusion - it is actually powered from the overhead wire. The blooper at the end proves this. It is wired so the overhead wire is electrically one rail and the surface rails are the other rail.
@@NJSntrak yeah but... how did you make sure that the trolley takes the right direction when taking a turnout ?
@@marcvandyck8052 I am not sure exactly, but I think the trolley pole is pulled along by the trolley and it stays in line with where the car goes. The trolleys have switches on the physical track to control which way they go.
@@NJSntrak I assume there are frogs in the wire which allow the pole to go to the correct wire when the car turns or goes straight through it.
A great layout, full of detail. I am planning a London trams layout that I can get on to a six foot by three foot board, using “00” gauge track, motor power from the track and lighting from the overhead so that it can stay on when the tram is stationary.

There's just nothin' like traction...it's the BEST way to truly enjoy model railroading. I LOVE it more than steam...and diesel-electric. 🚎
Thanks! Glad you eNjoyed!
@@NJSntrak just want to add one more thing...the overhead wiring on this excellent layout is immaculate. 👍😎 I gotta learn to do this, someday. 🚎
