I 've built hungarian diesel locomotive MÁV M41 in gauge 1. This modell (the original one) is the most used diesel loco in hungarian second line rail. My modell controlled by RC and power supply came from LiFE battery (2300ma capacity) This battery enought to use more than 3 hours. Model has 4 pcs. 12v motor (each axel) Please see attached pictures
That is simply awesome, I have some 45MM gauge track and a selection of wheels and was looking for something quirky I shall hae to dig about Hungarian railways
Superb from start to finish - and wonderful precision in plastic scratch-building! The underframes and drive train structure are truly works of art and miniature engineering too.
Overall, they really capture the prototype look beautifully!
I am looking forward to seeing the final roof detail and windscreen wipers when they are added...
I started to build a typical Hungarian personal wagon (Bhv). These wagons is good pair with M41 loco. (you can see these trains quiet often now-days too)
Akos very impressive work, I truly congratulate you.
I have some questions for you to help us out. We have a very popular diesel electric in Turkey called the DE 24000 of unfortunately there is no model of it . Most modelers scratchbuilt these from a Frateschi U20C .
Prototype;
scratchbuilt model;
My questions are;
1. Is this a kit ?..or did you make all the parts by yourself.
2. If so...what kind of material did you use....Evergreen plastics?
3. What kind of tools did you use ?...specially in making the curved surfaces...the technique of doing it?.....sand filing?
