While working out how to do the ribbed sides common on many modern locomoives I
hit upon using this
part
After a serious
of experiments to get the offset right I eventually came up with this design
This basis
can be scaled to suit, this is the smallest module (as far as I have worked it
anyway) The elements sticking out the ends allow connection to the next module
and can be replaced by ones half the length for the end module or also replaced
by longer ones as required.
The LDraw
file is available
here (note that
I have used Brick 1 x 1 with Studs on Sides in place of the new element Brick 1
x 1 with Studs on 2 Sides as this is not yet an official LDraw part. however I
have edited the images above to look right).
I’m sure that this could be
refined to make it more compact and to use less elements. Note to train
builders, is won’t fit as designed in a six wide, go seven! Finally, here is a
larger panel.
