Trolley Base & Harp with Wheel Kit

Brass Kit: Comes with all materials (wheel, harp, pole, springs, 1 trolley hook (LRP #005), and base and base support). All streetcars had some form of trolley pole and base on them; this is a common US-13-e four spring type base. There were several types and styles of trolley bases. The US 13 is a very common one, used throughout the industry. he wheel and harp are also a common item, and many of these were fabricated in the company shops, and they may have had different size wheels, etc… Some cities (Philadelphia for one) used trolley wheels until the mid to late 1980’s. In later years, a trolley “shoe” using a carbon block for the current pick up, was used and still is used in many cities today. Or they have switched to the more modern Pantograph.
