Discounts can be applied at checkout

All aboard! The Tram, also known as a tramcar or streetcar, is one of the oldest types of urban transportation. The UGears Tram with Rails model kit is inspired by the first street cars and funiculars and is one of the most romantic models in our portfolio – besides the fact that the tram is dripping in retro flair, it can also carry a love message to the other side of the track!

In San Francisco, A famous San Francisco cable car was put on tram rails in 1873 and works to this day! The car was built by a local company man named Andrew Hallidie to solve the problem of horse-drawn carriages being unable to scale a certain very steep hill called "Nob Hill." Hallidie implemented the same engine system he used to ferry ore from gold mines into a passenger car, and the tram proved a great success. Today, the tram is a symbol of heritage and a great example of the old adage "If it isn't broke, don't fix it."
