Classic Train: 5 or 6 studs high?

Recommended Posts

Hello trainsters!

Most TLC trains tend to five studs high (with 1/3 brick smooth plate and the one brick roof)

But not all, take a look at this :

Does that not look good?

Going up to 6 studs makes it possible to retain the smooth roof of the 7938 while adding doors. But then it would look strange with my 7939 :sceptic:

But I could add another layer of grey bricks (don't have any of those angled yellow bricks) on my 7939 and get up to 6 studs as well

Anyone done that?

I guess this is the odd one out, most others are indeed 5 bricks high (excl roof). Admittedly, the 7755 does look a bit silly when put next to the much smaller 7760, but it's about as tall as the passenger trains when you include the pantographs.

4564 is also quite high :

And so is the TS3 train ..

Hmm, I think I'll try to up the 7939 one stud and 7938 as well. That would make is posssible to put doors in the 7938 while keeping the curved roof :sweet:
