When I designed this tram, I had to make a decision: should I model the window
frames or should I use standard windows? Since official LEGO models sometimes
use non-transparent bricks as "windows", I thought I could do it as well. (Tiny
Turbo sets, for example) I used dark gray for the tinted glass because the
window-frames are black.
As for the runs-only-on-straight-rails assumption: this is not quite the case.
Currently it does not run on any kind of rails at all. :-) The cars are still
not coupled together. Actually, if I set up the tram to have a motorcar at the
end it can push the train through curves and switches as well. I want to add a
coupling solution based on what can be found here:
