Mike, et al-
I have begun construction of a 14 wide box car [1] and am suddenly very
interested in the scale of the LL trains. Does anyone know how many studs wide
those babies are? I am looking for some good pics on line, but can't seem to
find any. Didn't someone post some nice detailed train photos from Billund?
-John
[1] This is a fun project:-) I am using G scale wheels and have constructed
the trucks out of LEGO. Will need a little help from MIK, however, for
rigidity....

| John2, You may not need to get a couple of million bricks for your 8 wide layout. You can just use mine. It will be built to allow 8 wide trains to run. I fixed the problems with the turns being too sharp and am going to next fix the track point (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)
