Hello train enthusiasts-
I have posted some new pics of my redesigned Gunderson Maxi-Stack III intermodal
container car HERE
Highlights include:
- low design
- bracing (dont ask about the geometry; it was all trial and error)
- containers with real Maersk blue:-)
See my inspiration and compare to the prototype
HERE
I will be posting a similar design of a TTX Husky Stack container car when I get
pics.
Enjoy.
JOHN
