<p>[quote user="wedudler"]</p> <p>Ulrich,</p> <p>that's fine. And now you're on the narrow gauge trip <img src="/TRCCS/emoticons/emotion-1.gif" alt="Smile" /></p> <p>What's about a first module ?</p> <p>Wolfgang</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>Wolfgang - I have been into narrow gauge railroading for nearly 40 years. The early days were quite difficult, as there were hardly any locos or rolling stock around, other than the infamous "Eggerbahn".</p> <p>Johnboy - in 1974, just before my term as an exchange student to the US ended, I had the chance to visit the remnants of the D&RGW narrow gauge lines in Colorado and was fascinated. Upon returning to Germany I ordered this loco as a kind of souvenir. I could not afford to buy a brass K-27 or K-28, even the about $ 100 this loco had cost, translated into an enormous amount of Deutschmarks for a student.</p> <p>I still don´t know how I could forget this loco [:$] - it moved, unknown to me, about 10 times with me throughout Germany. It was the only treasure in that box, the rest was just the normal "junk" which accumulates over the years.</p> <p>A little miracle!</p> <p> I have no idea yet, what to do with it, but I will keep it in any case.</p>
