Nuovo Ponte (New Bridge) is on the imaginary
Società Anonima Tramvia Val de Boesio (Boesio Valley Tramway Ltd)
a 10.5 Km long rural tramway between
Cuveglio and Laveno-Mombello.
The layout is set in the 1960's with operation by Automotore Diesel.
Traffic is a mix of passenger services including a though coach from the
Ferrovie Nord Milano and goods wagons for industries in the valley.

An up valley train

The train is hauled by the tramway's pride and joy its only bought from new loco
this is literally true as other stock came from other layouts.

The train includes the through coach from the Milan Northern Railway

 
A down valley train

Both trains are mixed - they comprise passenger coaches and goods wagons

Following the continental tradition the forgon (combined break and parcels van) is next to the loco.
