Yes, but unfortunately it is rare as well. (Check out the front of my Hiawatha
loco: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=5495 ) I never considered
this element for roofs because it was so rare, but if it were available in bulk, I
still might have reservations because of its height (3 bricks). The curve may be
more accurate, but the height is too tall. Ideally, an element with the curve of
the 6005 with the height of the 6081 would be perfect.
