And thirdly!

As of today, the package with ten locomotives of the class 01 of the Bundesbahn is available. My special thanks go to Stoney, who allowed me to use his models. The package is available at the following link.

SF DB 01 Paket

You can also access the package via the link list here on my page. Here is the link to the list again. There you can also download all other locomotive and wagon packages.

Total steam

In the meantime, the third package with repaints of steam locomotives is available for the Bundesbahn and for the next few weeks I have plenty of work to do. What will come in the next few weeks can be seen in the known list for the planned rolling stock.

Finally the Reichsbahn

I know it's shameful that so far I have only offered one Städte-Express wagon for the Reichsbahn. The offer should improve soon. The Reichsbahn steam locomotives from Stoney are supposed to operate in the same way as with his steam locomotives from the Bundesbahn.

That should be it for today again.

Five packages of the 03 Reko series from the Reichsbahn available

Five in one go

As already announced, I will now also offer repaints of locomotives and wagons of the Reichsbahn. To get started right away, I will offer the five packages announced for the 03 series of locomotives. These were not made by me, but have not been available for a long time because the website from which I obtained the packages no longer exists. However, there are variants of these packages on Kunifuchs. Repaints of the repaints, so to speak.

The content of the packages

As I said, there are a total of five packages, which are divided according to Reichsbahn directorates. These are the following packages in particular.

Rbd Berlin

8 locomotives from Bw Berlin Ostbahnhof
2 locomotives from Bw Berlin Lichtenberg
9 locomotives from Bw Frankfurt / Oder

Rbd Dresden and Cottbus

7 locomotives from Bw Görlitz

Rbd Grefiswald and Schwerin

3 locomotives from Bw Rostock Hbf
2 locomotives from Bw Pasewalk
1 locomotive from Bw Wittenberge

Rbd Halle

1 locomotive from Bw Halle P

Rbd Magdeburg

2 locomotives from Bw Magdeburg Hbf
5 locomotives from Bw Oebisfelde

The packages are available at the following link.

Correction of textures of the package HF DB V 90 package

As already mentioned in the forum, five incorrectly labeled textures have been corrected in the package mentioned above. The corrected package is available from the following, known.

HF DB V 90 Paket

For those who only need the corrected textures, there is a correction package under the following link

Working on the packages for steam traction

As also previously reported, there are numerous possibilities due to permits for the production of repaints, which considerably expand my work possibilities. The 85 series, which I also offer in the form of a complete package with all nine locomotives for epoch III, is now being added to the already known series.

Working on the package for the 50 series of the Bundesbahn

The package for the 50 series is likely to be very large and all variants that can be displayed with the models from GR will also be included. This also applies to exotic vehicles such as 50 028 and 50 2428 and 052 428-0, which have tub tenders at open cabs. Friends of this series will enjoy it.

Working on the package for the V 100 of the DR from GR

Work on the replacement texture for the V 100 of the DR from GR is progressing well. This texture will be finished in the next week. Here you can see a first progress in the said texture on the model.

GR DR V 100584.jpg

As you can see, certain details, such as hinges, have not yet been shown. But that's still to come. Should it happen that the textures have different qualities due to the replacement texture, I will of course also make the other textures again so that the quality remains consistently high.

Half-yearly balance

Of course there will be the already known half-year balance sheet on June 30, 2020.

That should be it again.

The replacement cabs

You saw the result regarding the replacement texture for the V 100 of the DR from GR and that looks quite passable, I assume that I can also produce such replacement textures for the ugly photo cabs. If I succeed, the photo cabs can finally be replaced.

Package for manufacturing models of the 50 series of the Bundesbahn available

It starts!

The first bundle of 50 series locomotives from the Bundesbahn has been available today. The package contains only three locomotives, but these are real exotic vehicles, which is why their manufacture is also more difficult than the other 50s that will come.The package can be downloaded from the following link.

Package for making models of the class V 36 available

Replacement textures for the first time

With the two packages available today, the use of replacement textures to create additional repaints that could not previously be published begins.

These are the locomotives of the V 36 series in the service of the Bundesbahn as well as the Reichsbahn. In order to be able to better subdivide the locomotives in the future, they are divided according to railway administrations. The packages can be downloaded from the following links.

The irregularities of the past few days

Even if it sounds contradictory at first, the irregularities of the past few days are due to the improvement of the effectiveness of my work. That said, I've done all sorts of things in the past few days so that I can spend as much time as possible on my work in August. My project was successfully implemented, which is why I now have the time to work full steam on my projects every day in August. The resulting irregularities will no longer occur.

Repaint work continues

Now that a first part of the V 100 of the DR has been published, I will, as announced, complete another package for the Bundesbahn. Then comes the previously announced package with DBAG 294 and 295.

That should have been for today.
