Joined: 27/11/2007(UTC) Posts: 324		Hi guys, here comes a new and rare model from Norway. The Di 8 is based on a Märklin MAK chassis (2 axles driven, 2 with traction tyres) and equipped with Esu Loksound, 16 functions. Light according to the prototype. The model is handmade in Norway and because of the Märklin chassis runs like a Märklin loco. So for all of you who like something special. Here she is on my holiday layout:
