I like it a lot, Tim-- it really grabs the proto well.

One thing, however. My eye isn’t “buying” the additional clear plate as an extension of the 1x2x2 classic window, thus making the windows appear to small compared to the proto. Did you consider using classic doors for windows? Maybe those are too high, but it might be worth a looksee.

Trolley power!

Hi John,

Thanks. My eye didn’t entirely “buy it” either if I understand you correctly. I have to admit that I hadn’t considered classic doors but I was kind of hoping to build this one so I was going for something I could make without too much cost and/or effort. Perhaps it would be better just to drop the upper window entirely?

Tim

(...) Actually, what if you added another plate? Perhaps one more might "sell" it better? But given the choice of just dropping the upper window or leaving it as is, I'd definitely opt for the latter. JOHN (18 years ago, 6-Jan-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
