<snip> That looks cool, and yes, if modeled after a 200 tone crane, it should have 3 axle trucks (US anyways). There's also a smaller hook on the end of the boom. Josh (23 years ago, 1-Jul-01, to lugnet.trains)

Hi all, On S@H trains (UK) there are a bunch of new train carriages (5 to be precise), consisting of open top wagon, hopper, caboose, passenger carriage and tanker. Dunno if you guys (mostly from USA - I'm in UK) have seen/heard about these yet. Log (...) (23 years ago, 30-Jun-01, to lugnet.trains)

Hi, Yes, the nice thing about my red hoppers is they don't require any rare parts (like inverse corner slopes or 2x2 wall panels). I just used the 6x6 starwars quad inverse cutout slope dealy and it gives a nice hopper effect. You can make a lot of (...)
