AchimK Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Hello I have started researching the DR 61 Henschel Wegmann for a scratch build project in 00/1:76 scale. I'm looking for technical drawings of the class. Any guidance on how to obtain one would be much appreciated. With thanks and best regards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium readingtype Posted August 19, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 19, 2020 Nice choice of scale (seriously). Personally I'd recommend EM or P4 gauge but can imagine why you might prefer not. Here's a CD with drawings on Ebay. I've seen these CDs recommended by others but not bought one myself (though tempted by the Prussian T3 and others): https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CD-mit-Musterzeichnungen-zum-Nachbau-einer-Schnellzuglok-Baureihe-61/184408191040?hash=item2aef95b040:g:CBUAAOSwYIhWlCFL Ben Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dick rowland Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Do you mean a DRG 61 001, which has a 4-6-4T wheel arrangement, or the other type, a DRG 61 002 with a 4-6-6T wheel arrangement? Pages 10-13 inclusive, of the Eisenbahn Journal Dampflok Report Band 5 Baureihen 61-79, include photos and left hand side views of both locomotives. A DVD including this book, is available, via VG Bahn.de, entitled EJ 01-99 Die Dampflok-Baureihen der DRG, DB und DR. Payment can be with Paypal.

It's got to be 00 as the layout is (at the moment). I can see how EM or P4 would be much more fun and probably easier. Thanks again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

About 270Mbyte of data including very detailed drawings e.g. a main general assembly drawing measuring 9800 by 4500 pixels. That's massive. There are also detailed engineering drawings of parts (e.g. cylinders, break rod assembly, ash box, ...). Looks like you could build the real thing from them if you ask me (again, no expert). 2 downsides: Some drawings appear to have been copied a few times before being scanned. All numbers remain visible and legible though. The text included and the scans from publications about the prototype (including what appears to be the original manual from 1936) are in german. I'm very happy with them for £28 pounds including shipping. Better than in excess of £100 for Alfred Gottwaldt's (probably excellent) book, which is hard to find. Many thanks for the tip.

RMweb Premium readingtype Posted September 2, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 2, 2020 @AchimK thanks for the report, it's very helpful to know more about what you get on (at least one of) these CDs. It could be that the originals are not very large, but if they are then organising the reproduction will not have been especially easy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
