I like both the baggage and the observation cars you have designed and
built-  the observation car being my favorite of the 2.   What set has the
clear canopies for the dome?  Would the people still fit if you had the
seats facing each other?  If so I think I might like it better that way.

Where in the line up will you place these cars?  At what point would you
think it wise to add a second motor?


[ ... snipped ... ]

The clear canopies came from two copies of 7141 Naboo Fighter
(http://guide.lugnet.com/set/7141).  The same piece is available in the
A-Wing as well.

If I faced the seats toward each other then the minifigs wouldn't fit.  In
fact, there is very little clearance room as it is.  The minifigs have to
have their arms slightly elevated and they can't where hats or pony tails.

I have no idea where in line they will go.  If we have a 20 or more car
train I imagine we will simply place motors on either end of the train.

Mike
