      In 3D printing I am able to get models that don‘t exist. There are not many Tramwaymodels on the market and most time they are not good ones. Here I. Am get exactly what I want. But it is a lot of work and takes much of time.

          I’m running out of accolades for your wonderful trains and trams. A simple fantastic will have to do. I’ve always wondered how difficult it is to acquire dimensional plans and drawings for these little marvels ?

              @L-i-am it is just the simple Nano Banana on gemini.

              i used that prompt:

              "Photographic image of the interior of a tram in 1975, traveling through the vineyards between Ellerstadt and Gönnheim, smoking passengers, conductor with money changer and uniform checking tickets, keep geometrie, bright sunny day at fall"

                          I started to model that tramway for a 3D Print.

                                  ProfileBuillder would be a good option.

                                  Or CurviLoft

                                  CurviLoft to make profiles follow a curve in SketchUp

                                      I can't remember v1 but v3 has an Along Path option that has rudinmentary support for branching paths.

                                      Using ProfileBuilder 3 in SketchUp to draw train rails

                                        I need a path in the middle and two rails (special profile) left and right, to follow the path.

                                            Curviloft does a good job to be fair, not sure why you need anything else. Upright extruder perhaps (Or whatever it is called now).
