Worth bearing in mind that all and any German equipment would have been used - not just camoflaged. European models use the "Epoch" system to denote dates, so anything marked as being "Epoch II" would be suitable. You can often pick up older Fleischmann steamers via ebay for reasonable sums although fitting DCC (should you wi***o) can be a real pain. It's definitely worth fitting the proper close couplings to anything suitable - Fleischmann have one type known as the Profi-coupler (which I use, it works very well indeed and isn't hard to get hold of) while Roco have a cheaper one that I've not tried. What may swing it is that even older Fleischmann locos and cars can have Profis fitted, as can anything with a standard NEM coupler pocket.
