When I first decided to do this progect. I was thinking it would be harder
to do. But to get the idea of what I did, I made a 5 and half wide section.
Then offset that to the train car. And that is how the 1/4th stud offset was
accomplished. All together it took maybe 20 min of design/constuction to
make the offset.
