ESU new H0 scale loco

[Allegheny1600]

Electronic Solutions Ulm (ESU) are producing a wonderful looking small shunting loco, the Deutz KG230 B.

64 examples of this private railway loco were built from 1962 and eventually spread across Western Europe.

The H0 model of the Deutz KG 230 B will be delivered in 6 variants and delivered in November. As usual from ESU, the shunting diesel is equipped with numerous individually attached details and shines with extensive equipment: In addition to the LokSound 5 micro, two digital decouplers, a PowerPack energy storage device and a clocked smoking generator are equipped.

Pondering a better translation of 'clocked smoking generator'. Synchronised smoke generator, I reckon.

Saw an interesting post from someone on FB who’d seen the model at the Dortmund show. He said the colour schemes are all wrong

Don’t know about that but a couple of those smoke generators in a Deltic would go just fine

They do look lovely (no idea about the colour fidelity), and given the quality of recent ESU offerings, I'm sure they will be popular.

So it is not just a British complaint then

No, enthusiasts on the Continent are colour blind also.
