<yawn> Four of my passenger cars are 60 studs long. I plan on making two more
and an observation car, which will be 76 studs long. They are, of course, 8
studs wide;-)
I am finding that I can run all four using 2 motors in front on an engine and 2
motors behind (motors only for now). I guess I will be motorizing the trucks of
the last car. Not ideal, but I need the push to help with traction and insure
that decoupling doesn't occur. I'm guessing I can pull 5 passenger cars at a
time; I need to build a fifth one to actually find out:-p
Building 8 wide is so awesome, baby! Newbies, give it a try. Setinyourwaybies,
never mind;-)
