I'm not sure...the carriages look to be 4 or 5 wide, so they should be
compatible. Then again, it could just be my eyesight. The engine is also the
classic duplo steam train engine...none of the fancy stuff :)

The door actually appears to be shaped so that somone can sit sideways

Nope...the picture is still in this catalogue, but the carriage isn't shown
anywhere else. Sorry about that. [Maybe it's something that can be built
from a couple of other sets ???]
