Die Cast Buses and Street Cars

1919 Birney Safety Car - 1:48 Scale

When the city of Fort Collins, Colorado took over the small 3-route trolley line there from the Denver and Interurban Railway in 1919, it immediately bought four Birney Safety Cars. In their hilly terrain a safety car, with its "kill" button that stopped them immediately, was a must. Ft. Collins, the smallest U.S. city with its own streetcar system, finally abandoned the trolley in 1951. This specific trolley, #21, was still in service at that time. 25 years later it was restored and is still run today by the all-volunteer Ft. Collins Municipal Railway Society. But this is a true Limited Edition, so Act Now!

1921 Chicago Surface Lines Birney Safety Car - 1:48 Scale

By the early 1920's Chicago had grown so large that more and more trolleys were needed. But some had low ridership so the bigger 2-man operated trolleys were too costly for the Chicago Surface Line company. To solve this problem, in 1921 10 Birney Safety cars were purchased. These 1-man operated trolleys, called Safety Cars because of the "kill" button that stopped them instantly) were used on the less-traveled routes. They provided an efficient although bumpy ride until they were replaced in 1937.

Aided by the great expansion of the U.S. highway system, GM built 22,000 of these between 1959 and 1977. With its most remarkable feature being the big curved front window, the New Look buses are known today by their nickname, "Fishbowl".

1970`s PCC Pittsburgh Streetcar - 1:50 Scale

In the early 1960s Pittsburgh had the largest remaining trolley system in America. When the Port Authority of Allegheny County took it over in 1964, they converted most routes to buses. In the early 1970s, in order to increase ridership, they came up with this psychedelic sunburst design. When fluorescent paint faded, they used automotive paint and the streetcars were quickly nicknamed "Mod Desire".
