A better idea in my view would be to build the locomotives withOUT the

Okay, so where does the Black stripe go -- on the bottom or in between the

On this page

shows a black stripe above the yellow. It also looks like the red line is
about the same width as the yellow & black combined, so maybe you could use
the red bases (2 plates high) with one plate each of yellow & black.
Wouldn't match the loco, though, unless you modify that too.

(...) This ref has been posted a bunch of times now, and I agree it's great. But I've got to go dig up a different one to get a contrasting view. This link shows the coaches have no stripes at all, like I said earlier in the thread. ++Lar (22 years ago, 24-Feb-02, to lugnet.trains)
