To reply to the various comments on my railcar, to all of which I must say a great thank you:-
Whatlep, my railcar is most definitely a model of a German Railcar, I have ID’d it in a book of German railways as T1 from the Selters-Hachenburg Kleinbahn. I have found it in the past on the net, but cannot now. The Swedish beastie if produced by LGB would have been a goodie I think. The WJK Davies book on “The Light Railway Railcar in Western Europe” is a great source of information and inspiration. I had not thought to buy this when it first came out. But was so glad that I eventually did.
Stainzmeister, what you saw must have been the Dietz Railcar. I think that I saw one of these at G-Rail a year or three back. I liked the look of it, but wow was it big. Built to scale (whatever that would be) it would never have fitted in with my variable Scale LGB stuff. Or even have got round my line which has a Kinetic Envelope set for LGB
Otter 1, I think that what I have is your Zeunert beastie. Would love to get another of just the cardboard to make mine better. Whoever made mine did a real hatchet job with the glue. I do not think he (she?) had ever heard of Photo Mount!
Great replies, very well received.
