John, You just can't be satisfied with 6 wide, can you? I was thinking about your caboose and it needs windows. Since you probably don't have access to Gary Istok's collection of windows, you could make some 1x1 looking windows by using the 1x1 (...) (25 years ago, 10-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)

Hey man, Your models are really cool! Nice proportions and clean lines. I liked the use of the "corrugated" bricks on the boxcar ends. In a sort of related vein, (as far as mixing lego & non-lego components goes) I was wondering if anyone builds (...) (25 years ago, 10-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains)

Sweet! I'm starting to get really into these microfig scales... Looks real good, I like the way you used the 1x1 plates w/clip (or whatever you call those)... Nice job! -Shiri (At least, on average you're building six-wide now... (4+8)/2 = 6... ;-) (25 years ago, 10-Apr-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build)
