  1. Yes - I would also think that the cars were between 1.80m and 1.90m wide on the platform - and some 10cm wider on the passenger compartment. In meantime I found the drawings from Terry Russel/Ray Wilkinson - the ones that MikeTrice linked to above. After MUCH searching I found this page with some dimensions: http://tranviadesoller.blogspot.com.es/p/automotores-carde-escoriaza-serie-13.html I think the length of 7.9m is correct - not over couplers but over the platformbasis+the small puffer they have - that is also what I see from Terry's drawing That also matches that the newer Lisbon cars are ~0.5m longer and they are 8.382m But a wheel base of 2.2m ? - I would think 2.0m - that is also the dimension I see on the drawing Some other models exist of this tram: http://www.majorcarailways.com/newsletter_mar2001.htm http://tramways.blogspot.dk/2014/12/spanish-built-tram-models.html Note how slim they are. The Occre wood model is unfortunately much to wide: http://www.occre.com/soller-tram.html?___store=en&___from_store=en There is also a souvenir 'model' https://www.fetasoller.com/userFiles/Image/Shop/Artikel/Geschenke/Tranvia_Teaser.jpg No comments.... So I think I will make them 1.9 wide (On platform) and see how it looks. /Soren
  2. Yes I have seen that web site. These tiny trams are very detailed for that scale, very nice end extremely expensive. Well, I might do as suggested - jump on a plane down there. /Soren
  3. Hi Mike Yes, thank you, that helps me with my project. The only dimension that I still would question is the width of this tram, it looks more narrow in real life.
  4. Hi I am about to build a model of the original 1913 trams - not the newer ex. Lisbon trams. There are lots of pictures on the web, but dimensions are hard to find. Some of the few references to dimensions that I can find are uncertain. The Occre wood model looks much to wide and are not to the scale that they claim 1:24, but rather 1:20 or larger. I would be happy if anyone have some dimensions for this tram. I will make a 3D model available for ordering by ShapeWays or similar. Best Regards Soren, Denmark
