The trick
Leave the wagons open at the top and give the engine a second box stacked into a tall cube, so the low open trucks read as carriages and the one tall cube reads as the engine.
What you will need
- 23 square tiles
Step by step
1. Lay the wagons
Put four squares flat in a line, touching, for the engine and three wagons.
2. Fold up open wagons
Stand up the long side walls and a wall between each square, and leave every top open so you can load them.
3. Build the engine
On the front square only, stack a second closed box to make a tall cube. That is the engine.
This build works with any standard-footprint tile, so the brand you own matters less than the count. Short on tiles for it? The first-pack guide covers how to grow a collection without overpaying, the brand ranking covers which sets hold a build this size, and the compatibility guide covers mixing a cheap set into one you already have.
