(...) I was going to use the 2x2-with-pin plate in my designs too, but I found the 2x2-with-pin plate to make my cars to tippy. When I made my double-stack well cars (what is the right name for those?) I decided to try the 2x2-with-pin plate to put (...) (23 years ago, 3-Jul-01, to lugnet.trains)

Cool, I was working on one of these too. (URL) did mine a little differently. By replacing the bogie plate with a 2x2 plate with a pin out the top, the 1x2 plates with the center bump could be placed in the groove part of the train wheels. This (...) (23 years ago, 3-Jul-01, to lugnet.trains)
