Very nicely done, but I will not drive with that train as it looks like the driver is holding his cell phone to his ear.  ;D :peep:

Morning Joerg!
We are in a ciber world. Train is controlled by joy-stick and Wifi.  ;D So the driver has a laptop for watching the signals on ETC Level 5. ???  The driver needs the cellphone for communication to the control center. >:D
Thats the modern life! All clear  now? :loco:
Enjoy jour sunday!

Hello
Finally the second loco with Battery power and remote is in duty. But she was looking a little bit naked on the roof. So I had to make it model like.

After decoration the roof looks similar to the original!

Also the front part was looking empty

In found the way to do that a little bit more real

Thats what I mean as real modelling!
Cheers
