Hello all,
I am collecting parts to build a English Advanced Passinger Train.
It will have a 7 wide base, 6 wide top and 6 wide front.
And alot of various hinge bricks and plates.
It will be based on James Mathis APT design.
But I was abit unsure of the correct colours .
Does it have a Red or Orange stripe ?
On the train maked 370004 on the front , it seems to have a Orange stripe.
But in other pictures I have seen of it , it's Red.
Is it just the sun shining down bright that makes it look Orange ?
Or the Camera's flash ?
A Picture of the real APT:-

LTC Containers ?
Do they have stickers on both sides ?
I would love some LTCC from Europe ! FGLTC, etc
I am thinking of building a train to hold my digital camera.
So I can Film the train layout at Brickfest PDX.
My camera is about 15 studs wide , do you think it will fit ?
Many Thanks, Teunis, M>ltc

| (...) SNIP 7 wide! Now that's what I've been saying since I first heard of the how wide debate. It's about time a real train builder came around to the truth: Trains are 7 wide and cars are 5 wide! Aaron (20 years ago, 29-Jan-04, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| (...) They tend to have stickers on both sides, yes. We are going to informally exchange containers at BrickFest PDX, I am sure. I'll be bringing a few MichLTC to trade with whoever wants to trade.
