Oh yes, absolutely Nikos. I prefer the green Kroks to the brown ones, but I may get a brown one one day. However, I like the look of the mfx Krok that is in the Swiss Mega Starter set (and the AE 6/6 too). Some members of our local Marklin club have both green and brown 1 Gauge Kroks, they are very impressive. I have posted these pictures before, but here they are again: And here is my 39560 running on our club's HO layout at Model Railway exhibition recently held here.

In the year 1995 there have been three LFCM/DCM Gators: #3335, #3322, #3722 [:p][:p][:p] Turn of the century saw three BIG-SINUS Gators: #39221, #39222, #39223 And today: NO SINGLE ONE LEFT. All of them cancelled by some guys with no idea about MRR. They deleted most of the U.S. stuff, and they deleted all the excellent Gators [xx(][xx(][xx(] In short words, they cancelled most of the high quality classics collectors would buy Seems economical harakiri makes 'em sharp. No wonder the company is in such state ...

As far as I know, all types of 3356 had black wheels and unpainted handrails, like this: Your picture with yellow handrails and grey wheels seem to be from a more recent model. Could it be? Regards.

Anyway, since I posted the picture of the loco in this thread I have upgraded the loco with a 60760 kit, and may even put a loksound in it later on (with swiss lights!??)

It required these parts: 259150 lamp holder (2x) 207990 light guide (2x) 1N4148 diode (2x) It is identical to 3356 verison 1 regarding length and lights, but has a metal body and different colour scheme.

Is it's gearing more prototypical? I have one other gator, a Roco E-91 geared slow, the motor screams when powered more than half way up. It has great tourqe for pulling many cars though.

My fever started in 1974, when I, as a young Inter-railer, stood at the platform in Winterthur, Switzerland. A Crocodile, without any cars, passed me just a couple of meters away. The platform was vibrating as the big locomotive passed. I will never forget it.
