Makes me feel as if it's a new wagon anyway...

Hello,
if you were trying to make it look rusted, then it works for me.

thoroughly enjoying this thread and would like to contribute if/when I can work out how to post photos again....Anyway, think I've sussed it again, so not a recent purchase but slightly unusual, the Trix Adler Anniversary set with a decoder built into the loco. Looks great next to the Big Boy.....
Cheers
Ian
Hello,
I haven't ever seen the original set with the different carriages before, so thanks.

 

[Adrian Ross]

Hello,
Here's another one that I got around June.
I haven't bought very much this year. I'm very happy with the few items I have got. Glad to see others getting some enjoyment as well.

Good Morning Everyone, Yes it is becoming a very interesting thread. 6991 your weathering looks great and adrian i do like the SBB wagons i did not go for those but now i wish i had. Tonkatoy welcome to the thread i do like your trix train I bought something not quite like that earlier this year for me it was Quercky but nice complete with sound it is a lot smaller in the flesh than i would have like but it is to scale.



I may have some coaches to pull for the Dampf above. Babs

Hello,
I'm not really a collector of SBB, but I seem to have more then a few now. I went for these Brawa 'branded' cars mainly because they were Era II. Like you, I've regretted not buying some of Brawa's earlier issues. Once they're gone, folk tend to hang onto them.

Do you have that Trix loco already? If the cars are matrix 'oldtimer' ones, then the trix version normally has lighting, but check first.

 

[Babz]

Adrian thank you for that, I do have the Trix loco. I will check thank you. Over the Last few years i have steered mostly towards Swiss As i am fascinated by there unusual Elok's. I spend a lot of time In Luzern and i am alway's traveling around by train I love the Double Deckers. Babs

Two of my favourite Swiss things. I have great memories of visits to Lucerne including "fasnacht" and an eight coach IC2000 set lurking on my layout.

[Babz]

Ah the IC2000 I am very fortunate to have 2 rakes of these which is one of many favourites. Babs

This is my only Swiss loco. I haven't bought any new locos for a while and this was one in the last batch, so maybe 'recent'. I now have quite a few Swiss freight cars, but no passenger.

 

[Babz]

Good Morning DWB and Adrian, I do like your stock very nice indeed I cannot wait till i start laying my Track in the Loft to get something running, Adrian I have only one swiss Steam Dampf they do not fascinate me as much as the Elok's do but very nice though, But I do like a very strong Red & Black. Babs

 

[6991]

Here is a strong 'red/black' for you Babz.
This class was all over Bavaria, maid of all work.



None were preserved, however, when they were rebuilding Treuchtlingen station a few years ago, in preparation for a high speed line, they uncovered this.....



Part of a 54.15 class loco subject to a direct hit, and consigned to the bottom of a crater in 1944. The only memory we have of this really useful class.

The remains are at the Bavarian Railway Museum in Noerdlingen - if you have never been to Noerdlingen, go, its the best town in the world for sure.

Hello,

The last of my 2015 Brawa catalogue freight cars arrived today. This completes a very modest purchasing year.
There is a set of 3 DRG passenger cars on order ; but I'm not sure that they'll be available before next year now.

Brawa 48024



Brawa 48022



I paid a premium, the full retail price (48.50) without VAT deducted; from a major outlet in Utrect NL.
What I got was the display model that wasn't repacked correctly, resulting in some minor damage.

Anyway.

 

[Adrian Ross]

I got these in June, but haven't opened them. I'll replace the images with better ones, once I actually find them.

Brawa 47860



Brawa 47833

[reddo]

Nice update. There seem to be some pictures missing or is it just my connection. Your Trix coaches arriving gives me hope mine are on the way (the twin pack has arrived, just waiting on the main pack). I also have a few more items ordered incentivized by the still strong £/Euro rate. Plus it's nearly Xmas

 

[Babz]

6991 I thought it was your cats that were demanding not you. HA HA i am afraid i am having problems downloading from camera/ smart phone at the moment so having to rely on internet pics of products. Reddo you will be verpleased i'm sure with them.Babs
