Two very evident exterior flaws that really shouldn't happen anymore in 2023: Contrary to what ESU presents, the first side window from the left does not have a silver frame. And the curiously shaped sloping roof section over the cabs is also most untypical: https://www.forum.hag-info.ch/fo...postID=155139#post155139

And the chunky black window wipers on the Cargo version... ThumbDown

According to the information, the ESU model is due to be released soon, suggesting that it is already in production or shortly ready for distribution.
The slope of the locomotive roof is a little curious. I would have thought that they would have used official documentation and/or inspected an actual locomotive prior to designing the model.
As far as the side windows, some models have silver frames, others do not. Maerklin did not include frames. The Roco, Hag and Piko ones do.

I think that an Ae 6/6 with all these features and the ability to be run on either AC or DC should still be of interest.

Regards

I have seen and did checked after prototype and models.
It is truth that there is prototype do have windows frame and roofs slightly shows difference details.
Even HAG do have some models which shows some difference windows and the roofs.
