The norwegian train nut is back

Hi all,

I've been sort of underground for a while, but I used to be quite active at
r.t.l some years ago. Someone once referred to me as "our norwegian train
nut", which I regarded as an honour. You'll probably understand if you take
a look at the pictures of my German intercity train (#7740) after my latest
addition.

The train now consists of 2 7740 trains, the additional sleeper and mail
cars, and two additional cars of my own design, one mail car and one
passenger car. That totals 2 engines and 8 cars.

The train is converted to 9V (a simple matter of replacing the motor and
wheel bogies). I also have made several other minor changes (I'm not a
purist...), but we can get into more details when I have more pictures. Some
of the cars lack a few bricsk here and there, but these will be added with time.

(...) Good to see you back again, Frode! And yes, we're all very jealous of that beautifully extended 7740. Return well, Andreas Stabno (URL) (24 years ago, 14-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains)
