I've seen stuff like that before. I don't recall where I saw it though. Interesting picture though.

Yeah I've seen stuff like that on my layout but never imagined it in real life! Like the old saying goes, "if you search long enough, you will find a prototypical example of whatever you are modeling..."

One side of the coach gets a really nice nice view of oncoming scenery, signals, bridge supports, etc.
