Does anyone have pictures of the production version of the MTH Dispolok Taurus? I found this picture but for what I understand, it is a pre-production version. I want to know if MTH eventually painted the front silver. I know they did some changes like add a third  pantographs were prototypical. I have  a set of their modern kesselwagens, which I like quite a bit, that need motive power. Thanks for the help!

I thought this question deserved an answer, so I went to the website of the Lokschuppen Hagen-Haspe hobby shop;  they take their own photos of what's in stock, and their photos* do show an MTH machine, r/n 012, with the silver front [ or "bib", if you will ].  It is a two pan machine, as is the prototype**, I believe.

 

With best regards, SZ

 

*they take multiple photos with different views

 

**Edited to add:  In the sense this unit , 012.   Some other locos in this series and paint scheme are fitted with a third pan.

   This particular loco went into the [ mostly ] black scheme in 2013, incidently.
