(...) Thanks! How I got 60 from 37 I don't know. (...) No no! If you look carefully at the sideview you'll see that there is a third 'wheel' on each set.

(...) This is an EWS Class 37: (URL) I see that selective compression has reduced the bogies to 4 wheels each :-) What type of hinge have you used to angle the windows? Mark (19 years ago, 22-May-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

Hi everyone, I have what is possibly the stupidest question ever. I've made a model of a real British train (somewhat Lego-ified) which I'd labelled as an EWS 60 but looking on Google at EWS 60's it is not what I've made. So the stupid question is: (...)
