I just received my Modular Couchette coaches from LSM. I did not need a pair of coaches in each of the blue and white liveries, as I intend to combine these coaches with the Bcmz UIC-Z (Railtop) and Bcmz UIC-X (LSM) in the matching livery. My dealer was nice enough to split the sets and send me one coach in each version of the livery. The one with the more modern logo can be used with the earlier version and also in combination with the Upgrading (red/grey) livery, so I can supplement each consist if desired.
I figure that LSM will eventually release additional coaches in the Upgrading livery, so I will then run those together and leave the older livery for the other consists.

Here is a list of coaches that can go with these new arrivals:

Railtop 32511/32512 Bcmz UIC-Z Blue/White
Railtop 32515/32516 Bcmz UIC-Z Upgrading
Railtop 32503 WLABm 30 (Type P) Blue/Silver
LSM 47052/47057 Bcmz UIC-X Blue/White
LSM 47052/47054/47056/47058 Bcmz Upgrading
LSM 47078 WLABmz 75-71 Upgrading
LSM 47070 WLABmz 71-71 Blue/White
LSM 47001 WLABmz/WLBmz Blue (ex-CNL)
LSM 97002 WLABmz/WLBmz Upgrading (ex-CNL)

I can also add the LSM 48042 WLABmz of the CD as this has been running in the Wiener Walzer train for the last year or so.
I also have a number of ACME MAV (Hungary) coaches that run in the Wiener Walzer too.

Here are the requested photos:

I set up consists with the original blue/white and current red/grey liveries, showing the train around 2004 and again around 2010.
Due to the length of the display track available, I was not able to include the MAV and SBB coaches that can be added to reproduce the prototype for each period.

EN Wiener Walzer around 2003:

WLABm Type P - Bcmz UIC Z - Bcmz Modular - Bcm RIC - WLABm Type 32
OBB EN 2003 Typ 30.jpg
LSM 47150-RailTop 32512
LSM47150-RT32512.jpg
LSM 47150.1 - LSM 47151.1 - RT 32512
LSM 47150-47151-RT32512.jpg
LSM 47150 - LSM 47057
LSM47150-LSM47057.jpg
LSM 47057 - LSM 47080

EN Wiener Walzer around 2010:
LSM 47159 - RT 32515
LSM47159-RT32515.jpg
RT 32515 - LSM 47078 (Type 33)
RT32515-LSM47078.jpg
LSM 97002.1 - RT 32515
LSM 97002-LSM47159.jpg
RT 32515 - LSM 47058
RT32515-LSM47058.jpg

and here are the two consists next to each other:

As a bonus for comparison purposes, I have included a photo of the new LSM 47159 Modular Bcm and the earlier Roco 45500 Bmpz Modular
Roco 45500-LSM47159.jpg

The Prototype:
http://www.railfaneurope...BB_Bcmz%2BBmpz_WienW.jpg



The current consist would be as follows:

LSM 97020.1* - LSM 97020.2* - LSM 47159 - LSM 47058 - RT 32515** - AC52634 - AC 52648 - AC52020 - AC52030
WLABmz - WLBmz - Bcmz Modular - Bcmz RIC - Bcmz UIC-Z - Bmz UIC-Z - Bbvmz UIC-Z - Bcmz MAV - WLABm MAV
The train runs from Zuerich to Vienna and then on to Budapest. Only a few of the coaches go all the way to Hungary.
The consists in my collection represents the consist between Zuerich and Buchs with SBB locomotives.

* My consist includes the LSM 97002 which was produced for Memoba a few years back. A new series is available from www.memoba.at under the number 97020. Beware the intermediate set number 97010 which has incorrect coach numbers.

**The RailTop (RT) 32511/12 and 32515/16 are hard to find, but pop up on ebay from time to time. They can be rather expensive. If you can't find one, you can always substitute a LSM 47054 (rare) RIC coach or a LSM 47151 Bcmz Modular in the blue livery (from the set of 2).
