Description
Tram (also known as tramcar or streetcar) is one of the oldest types
of urban transportation. A famous San Francisco cable car was put on
rails in 1873 and works to this day! UGears tram is inspired by the
first street-cars and funiculars, and is probably the most romantic
model in our portfolio – apart from a ton of built-in retro flair, it
can carry a love message to
the other side of the table!
The
model is propelled by a rubber band engine (tram mode) or can be pulled
by gravity (funicular mode) when one end of the rails is tilted up with a
special lever. Levers on both ends of the rail can be used to elevate
the model above the ground, creating a ‘bridge’.
Tram’s
pantograph functions as a lever which pushes out the wind-up wheel of
the rubber band engine. There’s also a start lever, direction shifter, a
brake lever, and even an emergency exit to the roof. And of course, as
in most of our models, there’s a storage space for something special for
a person on the other end of the route!
