No 41 is my second scratchbuilt loco, running since 1980. It is the first built after a good drawing in an old modelrailroader. Rebuilt in the early twenties after it was destroyed in a heavy carwreck 2005. It´s my strongest, heaviest engine, Scale 1:45.
She pulls my very first scratchbuild cars and some Labelle cars, which I obtained after the end of the GDR. First Gondola in train was built in GDR-times from a LaBelle - Vignette in an Old Pullmann Catalog. It matches the following Labelle gondola perfectly. Trucks are mostly 3-d printed. A few are still from Athearn, for variation.
Some additions to loco and tender still to do. The wobbling in older videos came to an end now, cause I reworked the bearings of axles and siderods and in the gearing. Now it runs perfectly in my mind.
