Well it is 1x4 tile intensive. Obviously the tiles are all attached to a plate
base which is attached to the car using Technic Beams and 1/2 pegs. The stud
end of the peg goes into the lowest row of holes in the plates. The ends are
done the same way.
Pretty basic really and while the Technic beams look odd when looking into the
empty Gondola with a load (or on my Shelf Railway) you would never notice.
Now I need to get another Sith Infiltrator (or two) from TRU to get the rest of
the Blue Tiles I need.
