My DC class diesel has a 6 by 24 train base made from various plates.
Around the edge I have 1 by x plates on the bottom of the 6 by 24 to
simulate the normal base. I mount a 2 by 4 technic plate underneath
to support the bogie pin. Note that there is no hole above the technic
plate so the train weight is on the pin and not the smooth part of the
bogie plate. I've had no trouble with this set up.
