Dear Niels,
I feel very sorry for the confusion I have caused. Completely my fault. I was
too lazy to look at the building instruction and from memory I was mixing it up
with the passenger coach from the western train 726, which has had the 1x3x4
doors. I remember from childhood times, that these were always opening and
closing wile driving through curves.
And funny enough I was asking myself that time which was worse: both doors
opening synchronous at one type of curve (right or left) or just one opening
door in every single curve.
And I think I must have modified my own 131 waggons to the 126 style doors at
some time.
Thanks for reminding me about the original LEGO design!
Leg Godt!
Ben
