This picture gave me an idea:

Look for the street lamp.
Thanks to Bruce Chamberlain for identifying this element for me. I was stumped.
Now, how to possibly use this scoop hinge element for a roof?
I like this piece for the curved end does not smoothly meet tangent to the
vertical wall of the coach. I like the bit of sharp angle between the
straight side wall and the curved roof.
Here's a preliminary design study to try a fit for this scoop hinge onto a
passenger car roof. I was forced into 7 wide due to the 2-finger hinge and
the 2 SNOT studs protruding. I haven't real-brick built this. Oh, to have
so many gray hinge scoops!

| I think you're certifiable, James! Wow, that's awesome!! I never would have thought to use that element in that way. Now, how are you going to find that many of them to make the model in the ABS? -Tim (...) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-03, to lugnet.trains)
