Here’s my first attempt at 8-wide, a scaled up version of my Rutland gondola.

I have to say, that really makes the case for eight wide! It just looks ‘right’

Yeah. The blue pins bother me, but they don’t stand out as much when the car is on a layout. I do think I might try finding a handful of the dark bley technic half pins that came with the Batboat set though. They’ll still be seen, but they wouldn’t stand out as much.
