Hello, Recently I saw in Solothurn an NPZ set where the motorcar had been replaced with an Re 4/4. I didn't see the train leave so I don't know it the loc was...
... We answered the question on 29 May ... :-) Compatability is given but not for MU, that means: Bt NPZ + Re 4/4 II yes RBDe NPZ + BDt yes RBDe NPZ + Re...
... No, only RBDe *or* Re 4/4 II "drives" ! ... BTW ... It would work, but control is difficult, as the instruments don't show corect values (current etc.). ...
... As far as I know, this is correct. ... well, almost... but that would be rather esoteric: Amtrak removed the traction motors of some units and simply kept...
... AMTRAK removed the prime mover also as the locomotive pushing the train provides the head end power. AFAIK, AMTRAK does not have any passenger cars with...
I don't think Amtrak leaves those prime movers in there (at least not the 5 in use where I am), Alaska RR did something similar, but with third party gen sets....
... Basically yes but it is not a problem of MU cables but of the control system itself. Re 4/4 II (and III and Re 6/6 and RBe 4/4 etc.) is a conventional...
Does anyone else remember the 'enthusiasts guide' leaflet which SBB used to issue, which showed trains where you could 'ride with the driver'. I once used it...

A slightly late Happy New Year to everyone. While I have managed to obtain the books of 1/100 scale drawings of the Brunig line stock, I am interested in...
Does anyone know whether the class 66s on Rotterdam - Basel workings are in fact working through to Muttenz yard? These workings should have started with the...
... Maybe you mean HG 3/3 ?? ... Yes, but to be found second hand. More drawings can be found in: Jeanmaire Claude ; Die schmalspurige Brünigbahn ( SBB)...
It is speculations, as I don't have the diagrams, but I have my serious doubts that the Class 66 (of the HGK) are running through to Basel. I think they are...
... AFAIK they only make the Northern part of the journey, the Southern part should be secured by Hupac Taurus 101. To be verified... Markus, Gürbetal...
