James, We're really on the same track ;-) I've just build a first version of a Dutch double decker train a couple of weeks ago, which strikingly resembles your train, with very different colors, though. I took pictures but they are still in the (...) (25 years ago, 6-Sep-99, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I keep wondering if I will ever be able to try to model something US train-related. Maybe it's the "Danish" in the brick that keeps me European? ;-) (...) Personally, I find the double decker train appearance somewhat elegant. Well, not all (...) (25 years ago, 3-Sep-99, to lugnet.trains)

I dunno, James. That is some funky looking train. I mean the prototype! Your model captures what is a pretty weird train pretty well. Exceedingly well, actually. Why the white tiles on the trucks?? To get the right look when it's not sitting on a (...) (25 years ago, 3-Sep-99, to lugnet.trains)

(...) The fact that I agree with you about current quality level does not in any way disprove my thesis.

(...) I think standard container lengths are 20, 40, 48 and 53. There might also be 28 footers. These are also standard semi trailer lengths. Paul (25 years ago, 2-Sep-99, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general, lugnet.trains)

(...) Ah, yes. Trains. Consider the last two offerings -- 3225 and 4561 [1]. Truly I say unto you that the *only* good things about those sets are the windows. I'd rather have the entire train line discontinued in exchange for train window packs if (...) (25 years ago, 1-Sep-99, to lugnet.off-topic.fun, lugnet.trains)

(...) 10 for width yes. Container height and length vary. 40 used to be standard but there now are 20s, 30s, 40s, 44s and 50s I believe. I dunno what the standard height is. However my point is simple, 10 feet is the width of a container, it's also (...) (25 years ago, 1-Sep-99, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general, lugnet.trains)
