Hi, I see more than one indicator that the seller suffers from Achromatopsia. Regards Markus I personally think he or she is suffering from an originality disorder John |

Splutter splutter cough cough Well, some things should not be read while drinking, I'm almost reluctant to post this but incredulity got the better of me so I had to share. Poetic License is one thing, and we know our friends at LIMA are not really famed for their attention to detail or accuracy, but "loose interpretation" comes to mind here. From the LIMA catalogue 1979/80. Although I concede this catalogue IS the North American edition, so perhaps they thought it wouldn't be noticed?? I'm wondering if the person who put this set together even managed to keep a straight face? Such confusion, and who should be more embarrassed (or honoured)....., the French, or the Italians? But.... I just know there's going to be someone lurking who has a photograph showing that yes indeed, on some past date the legendary Express was indeed pulled by that Loco so I remain open to re-education if someone can confirm this could have been a real thing??  |

DB DR FS NS SNCF c. 1950-65, fan of station architecture esp. from 1920-70. In single point perspective, where do track lines meet?
