I have been working on some rolling stock for my train layout. I found that the round parts from the 7106 Droid Escape Pod cried out for a tank car and since I had a few of those kits…
I received alot on inspiration from the many Lego Tank Cars I found on the net. In particular, Royal Train and The 8-Wide Rolling Stock of Christopher Masi.
The droid escape 1/4 round side walls are easily joined and make a great tank car shape. Please feel free to let me know what you think!
