Since nobody makes a 3-rail Neighborhood Trolley-

And why the heck not? confused

I never knew what type of track the original trolley ran on but I'd have guessed it was 3-rail track.

Like many people who grew up with Mister Roger's Neighborhood, I'd love to have a screen-accurate copy of the trolley an would pay a bit to have one that was just like the one on the show.

FYI, when I was a kid, Fred Rogers came to my hometown for a kid's event and I got to see the man. Looked just like he did on TV and very laid back. I remember he smiled a lot even as he was being introduced and talking with the event adults. I honestly can't remember what he said or what the program was about (I'll be 50 in November and I was probably less than 10 at the time) but I can still tell you where it was and where I was sitting...
