Hi train freaks,

I've just uploaded a rendering of a 40-Feet container (LxWxH cm = 1219 x 244 x
259) (24studs x 6studs x 6bricks) and accompanying train car. For the container,
only the lenght is to scale, not the witht and height, To be on scale, the width
should be aprox. 5 studs and the height 5 studs too (1 stud equals aprox. 50
cm). The container has 2 doors that can open (2 x 6 studs), witch cause the
problem of width & height dimensions.

The accompanying car is of the type Sgns
(info at : http://www.sbbcargo.com/index/srv_neu_wagentypen-angebot.htm ) and
can carry one 20-Feet and one 40-Feet container, OR, 1 40-Feet container in the
center of the freight car.
The lenght of the carrier in 37 studs long,and 6 studs wide. This means that one
40-Feet type container (24 studs long) AND one 20-Feet type container (12 studs
long) fit on the car, as in reality.
Due to the larger width of the containers, build i the carrier on 6 studs wide,
witch should be aprox 4.5 to 5 studs in reality, with gives also building
problems.

I hope you enjoy it.
