The 3149 had two versions, the first from 1979-82 and the second from 1982 to 1985 The model was then reissued as 3459 with a Delta decoder and then as 37653 in 2004 with MM decoder. Regards Mike C

It indicates that this version is quite rare. The three other versions had two headlights. 3149.1 bore the number 8024. 3149.2 and 3149.3 had a different number 8058. Why Koll decided to use the peculiar version number "0" is unclear.

It has 3 lights on each front and has a blinking yellow light on the roof. The original V60 (3065) had a third light on the exhaust vent and on the opposing side of the cab. It is possible that the initial release of the model in SNCB colours may have simply been a repaint of the DB version before additional changes were made, but this seems unlikely to me as the 3069 already had the modifications made when it was marketed. https://i.ebayimg.com/im...AOSw691l-i-W/s-l1600.jpg https://i.ebayimg.com/im...AOSwgcBjSR~W/s-l1600.jpg Regards Mike C
