**Country tramway open platform wooden car for winding track normal gauge in H0 format** This is the basic model of my *normal gauge country tramway*, I imagined a wagon (*Era III*), running slowly, on very long routes through the European countryside, serving a lot of small stations, (of course a Europe without borders and without wars), a bit like the trains of the new world.
