Calum,
ParLUGment won't have any 8-wide cars, and I think Martin (MonLUG) has
decided to go back to 6-wide. So don't worry about us. However, we do
need to keep in mind that long cars going around curves need extra width
if they are going onto or off of a bridge.
Also, a question about the EluraCar; does it need 15-brick height across
the entire width? The reason I ask is that I am trying to build a tunnel
and with the arch on top of the entrance/exit it has less clearance at the
sides than it does in the center. Please let me know, as I really want it
to accomodate the EluraCar.
Thanks. Play well.
