John-

In fact, it’s over 95% 2x2 bricks. They were the cheapest per stud of any brick we could find on BrickLink (in large volumes, of course). David prototyped the construction concept, which is 8 bricks (yup, it’s an 8 wide) thick. Aside from the top row of tiles or plates on each stripe, the 100 star hangars, the 1x6s at the end, and the flag pole, everything else is either the same odd numbered row pattern or the same even numbered row pattern, each of which is 100% 2x2 bricks.

(...) Ahh, David is already subconsciously building 8 wide; soon he will be building his trains thusly as well;-) I just hope that it works out that the flag can somehow be preserved for posterity! JOHN (19 years ago, 19-Jul-05, to lugnet.trains.org.scltc, FTX)
