History:
Electric tram cars revolutionised public transport in the early 1900s, providing clean, efficient, and affordable travel for city populations. By 1908, tram networks had become a familiar sight in towns and cities across Europe and beyond, helping shape urban life in the Edwardian era. Their design featured open or enclosed passenger compartments, overhead electrical connections, and sturdy wooden frames. The Matchbuilder c1908 Electric Tram Car kit pays tribute to this important period in transport history, offering hobbyists a chance to recreate a piece of early 20th-century engineering in miniature form. Building the kit captures the spirit of the era while celebrating the tradition of matchstick model craftsmanship.
