I liked this one as well. It's an interesting twist on the bent arm approach
to drop center flats. You can see another approach here...

I had chosen to have end railings (simulating a car that has many more
wheels than the car actually does) rather than extending the ends as far as
Huw did.
Huw needs a bigger load to justify the drop center though (unless he's
modeling very tight clearance even by European standards) :-)
