Hi All,
I would like to offer a 2 wide train (3 or 4 cars) to the public at the NMRA
NTS as an ILTCO fund raiser. I would love to get design submissions from
anyone interested, so please pass the word. The fewer parts the better to hold
costs down. It can be existing or new.

2 wide AMTRAK Acela
Express with service to Washington D.C., Philadelphia, and the Northeast
Corridor. Pack lightly, diet...space (S-P-A-C-E!) is limited.
There are several versions shown. Differences include nose elements and coach
length. I think my preference is either version 10 or 11.
Version 10 uses 103 pieces total for the 2 loc, 1 car set with a Studs-Up loc.
Version 11 uses 137 pieces total for the 2 loc, 1 car set with a SNOT-wise
inverted 1x1x2/3 slope to sleeken the cab and a bit of an air-gap below the
inverted slope which I excuse as a step for the cab door. I have no excuse for
the air-gap below the light blue 1x2 thin-wall element on the coach.
I have not checked part availability.
later,
James Mathis
