O Scale models of transit equipment from the Saint Petersburg Tram Co. Chicagoland Hobby. 6017 NorthWest Highway. Chicago Illinois USA.

Chicagoland Hobby. 6017 Northwest Highway. Chicago Illinois. January 2010.

I took this digital photo on a visit to Chicagoland Hobby during My lunch break.

These O' Scale models on the upper shelf, are from a Russian import company known as The Saint Petersburg Tram Company.

From left to right can be seen a Chicago Transit Authority 1950's era General Motors TDH series old look transit bus, a Chicago Surface Lines 1944 Ford bus, An Illinois Terminal Railroad 1940's era double ended PCC lightweight interurban trolley, and a Chicago Transit Authority 1964 Pulman built lightweight 2000 series rapid transit train.

Sometimes just seeing models like these on display, bring back happy memorys for Me when I was growing up in Chicago during the 1960's and 70's.
