My 20 footers are 16 studs, so 12-14 would be good...of course I would lean
towards the 14 side ;) I made my wells just big enough to fit my 40' (32 stud)
containers so I cheated and made my cars a bit shorter than they should be.
I'll be interested to see if 70 studs is too long. I am sure you'll let me know.

| (...) Well the older well cars have 40' wells. Josh P.S. I promise you will hear more about my SD90MAC soon, and I may be using Chris's 3 axle truck design. (23 years ago, 7-Jun-01, to lugnet.trains)
