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.

Return well,
