Bonjour Philippe et Erik
This technique incredibly rich !!
1. Use of the 1x1 Technic brick for SNOT orientation needed for the 0.4 stud gap
by the plate. In fact not a plate but a 2x2 corner plate because the stud is a
bit higher than 0.2 studs as underline here

2. Use of Erling Brick for :
- an additional 0.2 stud gap (total : 0.6 stud gap)
- SNOT back to stud up !
- and SNOT for the tile on the side.
The tile on the side (2 studs) perfectly fit the Erling brick width (0.8studs) +
clear 1x1 brick eighth (1,2 studs)
3. The top can not be fitted with a plate but is perfectly fitted by a 1x2 tile
which does not have a tube. The tile is slightly sliped on the side which
represent an offset technique (undocumented AFAIK)
This is quite amazing but the truth is that Erik created this trick for Philipe
in less than 5 minutes !!!! What is your secret Erik ?
Could we imagine a way to automatically create SNOT/Offset tricks ?....
Philippe, about the engine, I know your love for 6studs (;-D) and an odd width
may seems more appropriate. But the constraint (6 studs) leads to very creative
technique so it’s a very good choice.

| Hello, Here is a french BB62400 in blue color that is normally used for freight trains and mostly in multiple units. Sorry for the colors, it should be classic blue, but looks like Maersk blue just because the image is too yellow. (URL) It is made (...) (19 years ago, 28-May-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX) !
