Hi,

Some times ago, I rebuilt the well known 7760 set 12V Switcher in 8 studs (can be put on a 9V or 12V motor as you want). I have finally uploaded the image in my BS galery as well as the MLCAD.



The cab of the loco in a straight 8 studs wide, while the other parts of the base are in fact 7 studs wide (and 5 studs wide for the blue parts). With an extra half stud on each side for the fences and the ladders the result is 8 studs which is perfectly aligned with the cab.

(...) <snip> (...) Excellent work; I love seeing remakes with a twist. In this case, I really think your MOC shows off the advantage of building 8 wide-- it really helps "sell" the idea of a switcher. Well done. JOHN (18 years ago, 14-Nov-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
