Please take a look at the stack on this LEGOLAND Billund steam • locomotive.
I am wondering how the red and white circular stripes were constructed.

The stack appears to be 4 studs diameter.
The stud pattern on the circumference leads me to think "macaroni" • bricks.
Yet, the apparent height of the stack is composed in layers of red, • white,
and black do not appear to be 1 brick tall, respectively.

How is this achieved?
- Is there a 4 stud diamter curved plate?
- Are red/white official LEGO(R) element rubber bands stretched around • the
stack?  Perhaps the resolution, clarity, and distance of the picture can • not
resolve the thickness of the rubber bands?  For it seems to me that • there is
no addition increase in the stack diameter at the levels of the • red/white
stripes.
- Is it tape used to make the red/white stripes?

Thanks for looking.
