Hi everyone.

I've created an EMU in Strathclyde livery, and
It's 8-wide. I did start off with it being 10-wide,
but it looked just too ridiculous  :)

very nice, I think you have captured the feel nicely. One improvment I could
think of would be to inset the doors by half a stud rather than a whole one,
This still gives the door outlines a more subtle inset appearance. Keep up
the good work, there seem to be a growing group of people modelling UK
prototypes.

Thanks - but the doors ARE only offset by half a stud! It doesnt look
like in some of the images, but i used a 2x1 plate with a centered stud
to offset them. I did a lot of copy and pasting in MLCad and it doesn't
always leave the bricks exactly where they should be, I've noticed.
