 | | building 6-wide cars
|
|
Our train group is going up to 6-wide cars (and 8 wide trains) for the next layout. Anyone got any advice or tips on how to make them (and how to make them look good)? I am good at making 4-wide cars but not so much at making 6-wide. (16 years ago, 22-Oct-08, to lugnet.town, lugnet.trains)

(...) Nice model, you really captured the feel of Norms workshop. All you need now is to find a suitable printed piece (or make your own decal) to use as a sign. (16 years ago, 15-Oct-08, to lugnet.town)
