Hi Fred,

A lovely scene! O gauge, I presume?

If so, then were they the Pola 89 and Rivarrossi 80? I used to have a Rivarrossi BR80 in my O gauge days, it was a really nice model and had been upgraded with better motor and details, not by me sadly.

All long gone now though, as much as I like the larger scales, I can’t have the variety I can afford in H0.

Cheers,

John

Thank you John,

It is indeed 0 gauge (Spur 0). The Baureihe 80 is RivaRossi which was available RTR and in a kit (with a separate motorizing kit). I made this from the kit with the motorizing kit. The Baureihe 89.62 is made from a Raimo kit. Raimo used the Pola Maxi tooling after Pola went out of 0 gauge. This kit was without motor, so the Baureihe 80 is pushing the complete train (please do not tell further )

Fred
