Hi Joep,
Seems that trains is very busy with new posts at the moment. I am curious why
you decided to change to eight-wide. It seems to me that this train is not
gaining anything much from it but perhaps you see future trains as having
greater potential in eight-wide. Of course I am a fairly strict
six/seven-wider so might be biased ;)

I think that, yes, your bias is clouding your judgment, because it is obviously
clear why he went 8 wide to model this train-- because he totally nails the
look and feel of the proto by doing it. Compare it to his 6 wide version.
There is no contest here.
Sorry, this MOC is a spot-on for dimensions and in appearance. Well done, Joep!
JOHN

| (...) I agree he has the shape 100% down but I thought that for the six-wide version too. I'll never quite get eight-wide but these are nice trains, six- or eight-wide. Tim (19 years ago, 27-Feb-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
