i don't know if train guys use these parts like this, but let me say this is
like one of the most unhearty designs i have ever gotten to stand alone
without falling apart. cheifly becuase of how i used those windows too.

I know what you mean about the rear covering the nacels, but i decided that
viusually it just looks better than using the 1x6 rounded slopes, and i
brain stormed that a little overlap would be nothing for future designers to
build around. However the frontal view of the inside still annoys me too.
I was thinking about ways to continue that side wedge upward and integrate
it, but the different levels of snot make it kind of prohibitive... if you
look closely at the ambulance, you will see that there are actually a ton of
bricks and plates involved... still it was very close. about the flashers,
i know just what you mean, but didn't see a way to put them on the rear at
all, however the two sides of the front of the bus use those odd new kind of
slopes and i was hoping that they gave off the essence of the hoods that
usually surround those lights.... not good enough?
