A picture from 2005, not a long tunnel, more a bridge. Rather higher outside temperatures end his life as the exhaust steam of the locomotive.

After Mother Nature gave us some snow this winter, I picked up on an old idea again. Why not lay a small rail circle on the snowdrift in front of my terrace? I dug a small track into the snow and tried to create a reasonably flat track with a long spirit level. A good opportunity to try a new remote...

Since Regner has been bankrupt and are on restart, I'm not sure if you can get any replacements if you'ld break something.. Dead ones live longer Mike, I am not sure how well you understand German, in our forum there are countless threads on improvement, problems with Regner machines. www.schienend...

With better outside light conditions. But after a while the safety ring which is fixing the front c...

Hi everyone! Last Weekend started an little testrun on loosely laid 45 mm tracks on my terrace. The winter weather, snow and ice have provided for a beautiful backdrop The safety valve has been reset, it has always exhausted at low pressure. So that always a large part of the steam did not get into ...

Works well, on the top of the chimney there is enough heat to dry the oily condense inside.

Only after a tank stop to fill water it spits a little.

I've bought a few days ago a Regner Max. Actually I wanted to use the boiler equipment unit for a steam launch. Regner no longer produces these boilers. But out of the box, I did not have the heart to break it. :oops: So I pimped him. ./myff/1999365/26_2016072024_max19_07_2016img86214.jpg 30 mm Cera...

Tank you Andy and David for your answers and suggestions. Yes, it will not be easy or a model close to put the narrow WD Wagons on the 45mm bogies. But I always try to buy the best for locomotive wagons or establish itself. I'll think of something. Here in the old continent, the 32 mm track is not s...

Hi Everybody! I'm new member here but read here for some time with the forum. Now I have a question. For my pre-ordered Accucraft WD Baldwin i'm seeking for rolling-stock in 45mm track., Especially a D-Class wagon. My Internet searches suggest several providers: Andel, looks good, cheap, but no long...
