Hi everyone,
I've update the model as suggested by Ben A - please check out the thread over at 3D printing: http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/113998-sbb-twindexx-intercity-n-scale-spur-n-echelle-n/?p=2647678.
Here are some images:
And the Second Class trailer (first class is also done):
Anyhow, please let me know what you think. I hope to do another test print soon and will post photos when that's done.
Alan
These look great Alan - and the photos too! What do you think it would take to rework the models for Z gauge? Could they be simply scaled somehow? (I'm not particularly familiar with 3D modelling but would certainly be happy to roll my sleeves up to do things like this!)

Hi everybody,
I just signed up to the forum after finding a great post via google... and being stunned by the amount of really great content about Swiss railway modelling!
What I don't find is anything that's specific to Z gauge. Is anybody here modelling so small?
I found some great posts here relating to N or HOm gauge - tunnel portals and the Zürich double-decker 3D model - and would love to find this sort of information for Z.
Z gauge is new for me and I'm just starting my build, having built a lot in N gauge (British Steam, predominantly LMS) before. Excited by the prospect of being able to model at Swiss mountain scale in Z!
Thanks for any tips, links, or contact from like-minded people here.

Hi John,
Thank you. Nice to know I'm not alone ;-)
Maerklin have the monopoly on Z Gauge SBB stock, yes. I've picked up a few items on eBay and the local auction site, ricardo. I was also lucky to find an Re 4/4 still in stock at the local conrad branch!
Do you happen to remember the name of the shop in Romanshorn? I'll have a search around. Sounds interesting!
