Hey gang,

So I have several extra yellow train bases. These are the same bases that come with the Maersk Container Cars. I made a ondola using these but it doesnt look right. I tried a flat bed car and that as well did not look as planned. Sooooo, Im looking for design ideas.

What about a double decker passenger train? Just google image "double decker train"

[Hey Joe]

What about a crane and flatbed combo? I'd really like to build those myself.

Using the jacobs wheel base from the horizon express you can easily get a form of ttx intermodal system working

Yes crane is nice or passenger, however how about car transporter, or nuclear canister container...(what is about me and nuclear)

I would love to do something along the lines of an auto carrier.
