Regarding the "Bandiera" or Gran Comfort coaches, have you seen this one?

The IC "Benedetto Croce" sets were released in mid-December. Check with your dealer now.
55213, 55214, 55215

Rivarossi will also release sets 4271 and 4272.

I hope that this made your day

I never tried Rivarossi but ACME coaches are just nice to watch...
Ep. III (My layout is set in 1962).
I collect mainly DSB, DB and SBB but I'm quite... Open minded.
I'm quite a big collector of NOHAB lok :)

Hi - very interesting! I have to do some homework on the matter. The ACME set seems closer to what I need than the Rivarossi set, but it is still a later era and has ribbed roofing with UIC/eurofima coaches. I am after the FIAT-based coaches in this livery, which came a bit earlier, but the ACME set seems to have a few of them. A great article on the topic:

I may pull the trigger on the ACME set, but I will at least wait for their 2019 announcements in case the ERA/coaches I want are announced then. I figure they will want to do them asap to get back their tooling costs...
