James,another beautiful model!
I tought many times about building a TEE train (8wide,of course),but I haven't
windows enough!
What about using 2x4x2 (or 2x6x2) windscreens,instead of Paradisa corner
windows?

I thought of that, and have seen that construction by others.

I used the Paradisa corner windows because I thought they more closely
approximated the curvature in the windows I saw in the Marklin model of this
train car.

And just one more question: where do the yellow plane windows in your 103
engine come from?

The yellow plane windows came from a set called "Outback Airstrip" here in the
USA.  It is/was set #6444.

Good luck with the 8-wide project!

James Mathis
