(...) Oh, right. Second read I realized what you meant. Here is a crude 7-wide shell built on a 6x28 train baseplate. It uses the 1x2 Technic bricks with 2-holes, the Technic Axle with stud at one end, and Technic Bushings to locate the SNOT 2x2 (...) (18 years ago, 29-Jun-06, to lugnet.trains)

--SNIP-- (...) Hi Luca, It was actually one of my first train MOCs and isn't so good. You can see it (URL) here>. I borrowed a lot from you both in techniques and general shaping. Tim (18 years ago, 29-Jun-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) I've got no idea to be honest. I assume we'd have to leave a gap but I meant more about working around the 4x10x3 battery box in the middle rather than the sensor (bad explanation I know). Tim (18 years ago, 29-Jun-06, to lugnet.trains)

(...) How far does the IR sensor bulge stick out? Does the bulge make the baseplate exactly 7-wide? later, James Mathis (18 years ago, 29-Jun-06, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Thank you Tim! You're right, the Manchester Metrolink has the same basics of the Turin version. Use it as base and, when you will have done it, send me a couple of pictures! Thanks! Luca (18 years ago, 29-Jun-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) Tasty, Jason:-d Since my post (almost 4 years ago???) when I deeply coveted your dark gray low corner slopes, I made it a mission to acquire some of my own.

Well it isn't Australian, but we always seem to commandeer all the good stuff from NZ and call it ours. Widely believed to be the first 4-8-2s ever built, these were built for use on the north island of New Zealand in the early 1900s. (URL) Enjoy! (...)

(...) A gallery of Steve Ringe's train work can be seen here: (URL) Steve is a former 8-wide builder that recently converted most of his stock to 6-wide. IMO very little was lost in the translation. Spencer (18 years ago, 29-Jun-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
