To get the discussion back on Lego track again: I've recieved my copy of the
Caboose set today, and I've discovered two worthwhile modifications.
First, for the elevated section, if you position the red plates 1 x 4
underneath the pairs of black windows, instead of on top of them, the
look-out hub looks much better, because of the higher position of the
windows and the now continuous black colour going from windows to roof.
Secondly, I believe it's better to attach the side-ladders underneath the
black plate 6 x 16 instead of on top of the red plates and black plate with
Train Wagon End. The ladders fit perfecly beween the bottom plate and the
buffer beam part.

Greetings, M. Moolhuysen.

Manfred, Thanks for this redesign of the Caboose. It is a great improvement in the appearance and the steps are certainly more secure. -- Bob Fay rfay@we.mediaone.net (URL) Moolhuysen" <moom@nospamchello.nl> wrote in message (...) (23 years ago, 1-Aug-01, to lugnet.trains)
