Train on a plane ;) : Btw, one of my first jobs was designing the maintenance hangar for that Beluga, it's somewhere here on the forum ... ^^ ! Apparently Airbus routes are all either water transport, or road ... pretty amazing ... : http://geoconfluences.en...ransv/Mobil/MobilDoc.htm http://www.meretmarine.c...que-maritime-pour-airbus And then, there is this A380 streamliner, pretty please Marklin ? ;) http://felipe1355.devian...t/Airbus-Train-334374380 Y

Swedish pop group configuration (aka "ABBA") of a Santa Fe war bonnet F-unit consist with a Super Chief or similar train - on a model railroad? The photos show a pure Santa Fe six coach streamliner train without the dome car (since the one I have is actually a D&RGW one). Besides photos from my layout I offer two recent bonus videos by jvuye of his ABBA pulled Santa Fe streamliner train. (https://www.marklin-users.net/forum/yaf_postsm446020_Poor-man-s-ATSF-F7B.aspx#post446020) (https://www.marklin-users.net/forum/yaf_postst30592_My-US-trains.aspx#post446619) That brings me to my wish: "jvuye" wrote recently regarding the Union Pacific RR: " But an interesting use of F units was on the old "Pedro" subdivision (San Pedro-Los Angeles-Salt Lake route) - on a train known as the DLS (Day Live Stock) whose route was identical to the City of LA, and whose schedule was almost as fast as the passenger train (just a little over 27 h over the California division) and was scheduled to travel over the desert section during the cooler nights. ... DLS cars were originally pre-WW II stock cars, duly refurbished with roller bearings axles and newer brake systems (to remove speed restrictions and reduce start up friction), something that was unheard of at the time except for the top of the range Limited passenger expresses à la City of Los Angeles, etc. In addition, the cars were repainted in famous UP armour yellow, with a red stripe and large Union Pacific markings and silver roof (to reflect as much heat as possible during the desert crossing)." Now, please show me a photo of this UP DLS train. Alsterstreek attached the following image(s):

		Matt Era 3 DB lokos, coaches and freight cars from across Europe But I do have the obligatory (six) SBB Krocs ECoS 50200, all FX and MFX decoders replaced with ESU V4s, operated in DCC-RailCom+ with ABC brake control. With the exception of the passenger wagens with Marklin current conducting couplers, all close couplers have been replaced with Roco 40397.

Chinese gauge and Russian gauge are different (Russian Gauge is used in Mongolia, as the Soviet era supported some infrastructure projects in Mongolia). When taking a train to Ulan Bator from Bejing (or vice versa), it stops at the Mongolian-Chinese border so they can switch the trucks on the cars to match the appropriate railway gauge.

Usually the E69 ran with a couple of Silberlings, but if you have pictures of e.g. a short freight, that's OK too. I always thought these trains and this line would be ideal for a model railroad with limited space.

The closest I found was a train crash involving two locos, but I believe you did not seek such a brutal "exchange".

Anyway, yes the "Ski Meister" train is an actual thing from your country. The train was running in the 1930s in the Northeast of the U.S. of A, operated jointly by the New Haven and Boston and Maine railroads. While web information is sparse, and photos are even sparser. Therefore my request.

But one had to admit: arriving to Oakland with the CZ and then crossing the bay with a view on teh Golden gate and the Oakland bridge...**that** was class! Thanks for sharing, made my day!
