|  | 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!

 This shot shows the
scale improvements beautifully. I still like my toy train size but I agree it is
improved in eight-wide.
