Hi Thomas,

I am convinced you are right. The pictures in the 241 idea book show us
definitely pre-production pictures. Therefor they might have used some homebrewd

I asked for the "view-through" train wheels now and then here. But noone has
ever had wheels with 12 spokes (usually they have 10) in the way they are
displayed here.

Leg Godt!
