I have not decided for the time being. What were you referring to, the Z-6 or the coach car Edited April 29, 2021 by Craig Strader Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XG BC Posted July 24, 2021 great model! if you are planning on making a rolling version i would like to see it go through curves that has to look so strange. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Craig Strader Posted July 24, 2021 I have yet to make one, and even if I did, it would NOT work with what little track I have. The coach requires r56 MINIMUM. I tried the standard r40 on LDD and it did not sit well at all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I tried the standard r40 on LDD and it did not sit well at all This piece of information is actually immensely helpful in terms of minimum curve - I'm planning on building some 80 stud long coaches so similar length and need therefore to know the track I need for it. Out of interest is it based on any particular train? Also, I feel I should know, but what are the white grilles? Are those toilets? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is for the Dominion passenger train of the Canadian Pacific Railway. The locomotive I built was a G2 class Pacific, also from the Canadian Pacific Railway. 2. They are supposed to be bathrooms, but due to the small size, I was unable to actually put any toilets in there. The bathrooms are just empty shells compared to the rest of the train.

Wow thanks for the quick reply! It wasn't a paint scheme I recognised, though admittedly I'm British so knowledge is less. It's good to know that they're bathrooms as that means I can go ahead with that process. I don't know if you own any modulars but Corner Garage shows a good example of how to build a toilet in a small space on the top floor - a simple design I'm planning on copying at least in part. In a first draft of my MOC on Studio I managed to fit a toilet and sink into a 3x4 space using this design. Maybe you can fit one in that way?
