It’s another dome car. Another try. I’m not completely satisfied with this
design, but here is a try at a non-curved-window
Pullman-Standard dome
with full instructions. Sorry the instructions aren’t formatted well-- just a
core dump from LPub. There are
two different builds
using this flat-window construction.
I was inspired by both Larry’s recent Dome Car build and
Benn’s Pleasure Dome
build, I’ve tried it, again. I really like Larry’s truck-springs and interior
details. And, Benn’s use of the dark-grey windscreen is quite nice for its
fine-line window framing.
So, here’s yet another Pleasure Dome try.
Thanks for checking it out.
later,
James Mathis

| (...) Hi James, thanks for sharing your latest design here! I agree with you, that Larry built the so far best trucks and that Benn's dark grey windscreens might be the so far best solution for the dome. At least in kids hands that design will be (...)
