Drawing Notes:

This train has an engine, a flatcar, and a boxcar. To connect this train together, start by cutting the paper between row 6 and row 7. Cut it again between row 12 and row 13. You should have 3 strips of paper with the wheels of the train as the last row on each one.

Overlap the colon from the first cell of the flatcar with the colon at the end of the engine and the cars are connected. Repeat this with the colon in the first cell of the boxcar to the last colon of the flatcar and you have a complete train.

Modification notes:

The boxcar was modified to let the door reach the bottom of the car. Then the engine and the flatcar were each made one cell longer to match the wheel base length of the boxcar.

A sailboat.
