I contacted them after reading about the DX for the first time in the
newspaper (Aug. 2000) and I asked for some colored pictures, because there
was just an black and white pic in the paper.
I just posted my idea to build a LEGO DX to Transnamib and the gave me the
adress of the photographer (a German) and send my a nice screensaver.
Without having a idea they said, that I will come to Namibia, if I will
build a copy of the model for them. So I build a copy.
