Sticky tape. The blue 2x2 macaroni pieces are from the cement mixers in 4565,
and then the tape is carried (perhaps was :), around the back of the cars.
The cars were rather fragile, the bogie's are only held in place by a 1x4
plate, and the engine apparently fell apart totally on shipping (which is
strange, I didn't find it all that weak with the trucks removed)

| (...) Very nice VIA train set. Nice yellow nose. What did you do for the yellow stripe curving around the tail-end of the last car in the set? Is that sticker-tape, or is there a yellow curved plate? later, James Mathis (24 years ago, 27-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains)
