Hello!
This is my first post here on lugnet. I have built a model of a Danish Rail
Ferry which was sailing until 1998 and is now a hospital ship in south Africa.
The ferry has 4 tracks, a front that opens with a 9 v motor, a radar which is
driven by a micromotor, 16 internal 12v lights + 2 9v spots on the front. Lastly
the backdoors opens by pneumatic povered by a build in copressor.
Please feel very welcome to give me suggestions or ideas!

Greetings Henrik,

Nicely done rail ferry!  Thank you for sharing your talents.

Couldn't help but wonder - was this rail ferry replaced by the Great Belt Fixed
Link (Storebælt) between Funen and Zealand?

I had the opportunity to be in Denmark in June of 1998 during the time when it
was possible to walk across the East Bridge - the second longest suspension
bridge in the world.  I remember walking onto those ferries to get to the start
of the bridge walk each of the three days.  Then in the evening it was back onto
the ferry for the return trip.

I know the Great Belt Fixed Link also handles rail traffic and was just curious
if your ferry was located near here.

(...) Whoa, are you saying that you walked this bridge three times (a lot of walking) or that it took three days to walk the whole bridge (REALLY a lot of walking!) Either way more than I'd want to do! (21 years ago, 9-Jan-04, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Not Henrik, but I can answer it too. Yes M/F Dronning Ingrid (Motor-Ferry Queen Ingrid) and its two sister ships M/F Prins Joachim (Prince Joachim) and M/F Kronprins Frederik (Chrownprince Frederik) was sailing on the route between Funen and (...) (21 years ago, 10-Jan-04, to lugnet.trains)
