A short trip.

[adrian]

A slight but enjoyable distraction from modelling but a delightfully whimsical short trip.

Short Trip

Use left and right cursor keys to move, have the sound on and try the space bar. Enjoy the trip.

 

[David Varley]

Delightful.

How did you come across it, Adrian?

Adrian,

Would this qualify as a cameo layout?

[Ressaldar]

Wonderful! the 'wing mirrors' were a nice touch.

And I hope you stopped at every tram stop to allow passengers to board and disembark!

[phileakins]

Wonderful!

 

[Martin Field]

Beautifully drawn.

And not a trace of wheel slip.

 

[cbrailways]

Absolutely fantastic. Well done for finding that, Adrian.

How did you come across it, Adrian?

I have a couple of favourite websites/blogs I browse on a fairly regular basis that throw up interesting stuff from around the internet.

e.g. kottke.org

This one popped up on a computer geeky list
Hacker News

Once I realised you could!! I also discovered that using the opposite direction key made the brakes apply going downhill...

 

[ceejaydee]

Spent too much time with that but, yes, fantastic find and great fun.

It's so quaint...I want one, it'd make an excellent fun layout, not all of it but parts of it would be really left field modelling, especially the cat driver and passengers

 

[Eastsidepilot]

Brilliant, even our cats sat and watched .........now I know why it's called 'catenary'
I'll build that Shenfield stock one day.

 

[Yorkshire Dave]

It's excellent.

Even the attention to the details such as the pantograph maintaining contact with the wire, passengers lurching as the car is accelerating or decelerating and the station clock displaying 'real time'.

A bit nicer than the one I have at the end of the road! I got all the passengers back home as well! Lovely!!
Cheers Adrian for a superb find, again!

Lovely! A lot nicer than what I have at the end of my street here in Blackpool, UK!
Just been forwarded a link to this from a railway modelling group. Others, too, adore the dynamics, the cats and even had their own viewing it!
Many thanks for a delightful 10 minutes.
Regards
Ian
and received the reply:
Hey Ian!
Thanks so much for the lovely words. I'm absolutely thrilled that you got something out of it and I'm actually laughing at the idea of the railway group members' cats having a go too. So good! Thanks again.
Warm Regards from Melbourne, Australia!

So nice!
