TTDB

We all see items we like that are not available in the scale you model, while living/working in Germany I wasn't too far from Poland and often took a trip there, i have a passion for there UK look alike EU07 locos, only to find since joining this group there are 2 manufacturers offering them for HO in 2014!!,,,hope a TT model will follow soon!

Hi, Kres make the 628 in green/white and DBAG red, also some other DMU single cars, flying Hamburger and also the DRs attempt at a TEE style unit BR175 they als have HO and N on the web site http://www.kres.de/produkte.html

My last photo of today,,,,I'm not a fan of the modern BR101 I don't know why but they just don't appeal to me not sure but I think they look rather squat and wide ( are they too big to operate outside Germany?) so for my IC push pull set I will be using my BR120 by again a small manufacturer Beckmann, a very we'll detailed and weighty model. Beckmann will be offering the Swiss Re 4/4 this year,,,maybe the SBB Cargo will be on my shopping list

A pretty expensive one off win on eBay (about £220 in a shop) is my 2 car BR628 diesel unit by KRES a lovely model.

Ok here goes my first photo, pretty much all tillig except one coach which is actually made in Russia by the appropriately named TT Models, their range is available in a few German shops and direct from their Latvia based online shop. They tend to concentrate on Russian and Baltic States rolling stock but also offer several modern pieces for OBB, DBAG,CD,MAV etc and concentrate on pieces missed out by the likes of Tillig here we have an OBB 1st/baggage , I'm now waiting for the matching restaurant car.

Hello everyone? I'm Lewis a new member on here and just starting only layout after several years "family" break. I did have the idea in the early 90's of starting a modern image German based TT layout and I did build up a considerable collection of stock all from the then UK TT supplier who worked from his converted garage just outside Swindon basically all you could buy was BTTB and it's very basic track. I've just returned from a period of time working in Germany and also with a pretty decent collection of modern image TT from several manufacturers with the idea of constructing an exhibition layout similar to rhineside but an electrified double mainline with a single track diesel line coming off at a junction into its own small fiddle yard. I will post some photos of my more unusual pieces of rolling stock tomorrow. Lewis
