Would it be possible to do a cab view that faced 90 degrees away from the direction of travel of a loco? Say if the engineer was seated on one side of the loco so his legs crossed the centerline and he had to turn his head to the left or right to see where he was headed. I am doing an engine where this is the engine man's arrangment and was curious if doing a cab that way would work. Thanks for the advice.EIN

RE: Cab Facing Direction

No problem! You can even face sky or ground if you want.But you need put some pic to let other people understand why you need such cab? And I had to say there are many people make rolling stock, only a few people make cabview.
