Hallo Kollegen,

Ich habe eine andere Frage, für meine Informationen hinzuzufügen.
Auf einem neun Wagen Schnellzug wie viele Zuglaufschilder wäre in Epoche III benutzt worden?

Viele Dank,

Hello Colleagues,

I have another question to add for my information.
On a nine wagon fasttrain, how many zuglaufschilder would have been used, in Epoch III?

Many thanks,
Greetings from England,

Hello David,

in fast trains you will find one near the right door (when you look from the side on the wagon) on every single wagon and on both sides of it.

on regional trains normally one or two, mostly on wagon in the mid of the train, also on both sides.

I hope that this was helpful for you.

One pic of a E- Train you can see on www.epoche-3.de:

Hello Michael,

You have confirmed, what I had already Thought.
I had read somewhere that they should be positioned every third coach, which must have meant on Regional trains.
Thank you for clearing this up.

Hi David,

as I can see on your homepage, you will try to build Wuppertal-Elberfeld at home in 1:87? Wow, great pictures and really good stuff.

I think you are already a fan of that page:
http://www.bahnen-wuppertal.de/html/bd-wuppertal-gesamt.html

There is a photograph of D 81 with 23 012 in April 1951. The good old times of travelling...

On http://www.bundesbahnzeit.de/Galerien/Al...ier/galerie.htm
(scroll down to E 19 engine)
you can see a picture of D 81 in 1968 with green 141 and 119. The train composition fits to your model train of early epoche IV or IIIc.

In October 1961 D81 was D 81 "Alpen-Express" Rom - München - Nürnberg - Kopenhagen and was pulled by a 01.10 (Bw Bebra) from Würzburg until Hannover. This train was not running over Wuppertal in 1961.

Which epoche will you run on your model railroad? I am concentrating on the late Epoche III and begin of epoche IV (years 1965 to 1974) and constructing the line of Aschaffenburg-Miltenberg (in parts).

Best regards to England from Michael

Hi Michael,

Thank you for your kind remarks on my homepage, it started as a little peice of fun, but as you can see, its now taken seriously.

As for my MOBA I got to a stage,where I wanted to run scale length passenger trains and very little freight and Wuppertal Elberfeld fitted this perfectly, with most freight trains using the tracks to the north of Wuppertal.
You can see from my Homepage that I am trying to put a prototype timetable together and will run the trains to this.

My period started in 1964, but I am like you looking at 1966 - 1970.

Your choice of area to model, would interest me greatly, as its the home of the BR65.

Thank you for the links and train information.

I am gathering as much information as possible, which I find as interesting as the model side.

Wonderful hobby!

Regards to Germany.

Schon Grusse,

David
