I disagree. What I see there is some grey below all the stripes, so I think
Wayne's coaches look a bit better than the 10020. The black is just
outlining above and below the stripes, and to me the red and yellow look
nearer the same size than one double the thickness of the other.
I suppose the most awkward thing with modelling it though is that if you
want to drop the base by one plate around the bogeys, the only way to do it
without restricting the bogeys (in 6-wide) is to use a 2/3 high train base,
so whatever colour it is you get two whole plates of it.
