Cardboard Coaches - Super - 02-21-2020
Nice homemade construction of coaches using cardboard and Photo prints. Nicely done.

That's neat! I love the last coach with different windows!
RE: Cardboard Coaches - Super - 02-21-2020
I am wondering if he blocked off those windows Photoshop or similar software before printing them out or he actually has some to take a picture of. I don't think I have seen Express Coaches like that.
RE: Cardboard Coaches - leylandvictory2 - 02-21-2020
he probably scanned the express coach sideways
RE: Cardboard Coaches - Super - 02-21-2020
??? There is an Express Coach with blocked out windows Leyland? Off hand the only ones I know of is the see inside Old Slow Coach and the same one that came with Emily in one set which is hard to find.

If only I knew this guide existed when it was uploaded. The main problems were I never had unpowered rolling stock with the right wheelbase apart from Spencer's coach and the long Clarabel, and I wouldn't have had enough wheels, axles and couplings left for several of them. Apart from the yellow wheels (and the brake coach), it's almost difficult to tell they aren't the actual item since they're so close.
Side thought: In case my only Gordon (the talking TrackMaster one) would no longer run for whatever reason, I've thought about trying to convert him to normal with the C battery tender and motor from my original Edward (and cutting the groove for the on/off switch) and turn the oversized tender into something else, if possible. Same with Salty and James.

Looks like he was trying to make it a Brake Coach

maybe he covered the windows with cardboards glued to the interior walls.
