A few months ago I had build a Train in style of the Carette french Metro Train.
First, I had made a layout with help of photos. This layout was printed on a tin sheet at a printing house.
Cutting out around 120 windows
The facility of the coaches
The frames of the coaches are Karl Bub frames of the 20s
Sockets for the light are from old Marklin switch
A short plug from Lego trains of the 80s
A short coupler. American Flyer repro couplers with parts of metal building toy
As engine parts of a Marklin HO loco changed to 0 gauge
Frame of the loco
The facility of the loco
the lamp holder
The pickup is from a Marklin H0 coach. Works on 0 gauge rail but it´s to small for points. I will change them in the future.
Here the complete train. Behind the windows of the loco you can see a part of brass, I need this at the moment, the engine works only on 2 wheels and this brass part is a weight. I will change the engine in the future.
The complete train has a weight of around 1 Kg, the small engine needs 16 V to run this.
