I am sort of doing the same. Converting my 6 wide trucks to beefier more
detailed 6 wide (using the larger wheels) and bringing my cars and things up
from wimpy 4-wides to 6 wides. I think I am going to stick with 6 and 7 wide
trains. 8 wide would mean I have to redo my entire layout, which I am going to
do at some point, but I don't plan on it within the next couple of years.
Back to 6 wide vehicles: I am sure you know the work of Spencer, Pierre,
Misterzumbi, Tim Gould and Stephen Asbury. Great inspiration there. The cab of
this snowplow was actually developed by Tim.
