Going by the pictures on Pause, these sets only have 4-wide windscreens, not six: 6329 Truck Stop Cafe, 6432 Speedway Transport, 6434 Roadside Repair, 6464 Super Resuce Complex, 2148 is hard to tell but looks more like a 4-wide, 3442 is a 4-wide. (...) (26 years ago, 7-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains)

I know that the first generation space shuttle (2nd?) Launch Command, #6336, had the 6 wide vehicle, and I thought it was neat, so I got two. I can't think of any others. I liked the fuel truck as well, I am getting one on my next SAHS order. Scott (...) (26 years ago, 7-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains)

Since there has been some discussion of 6 stud wide vehciles lately, I though I would take a look through the recent catalogs and see which sets came with wide vehicles. Here is what I found (excluding train sets) #6453 Comlink Cruiser (Space Port) (...) (26 years ago, 7-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains)

Hello to all! I recently built (and unbuilt) a 4565 with an additional 2126. Trains are so fun! I got some switching rails and 2 sets of straight rails and was running my new big (to me) layout tonight with a locomotive and coal tender (courtesy of (...) (26 years ago, 6-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains)

Robin, Yes, 4555 is a great set. The only thing I didn't like was the truck design, so I made it look 100% better (In my humble opinion, anyway!) Have fun building it! Isn't that what Lego sets are all about? :) Scott Sanburn (...) (26 years ago, 5-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains)
