Me? hi-jack a thread? ) I do want to gather this all in one place I will however, quote myself here... Quote: I may be really, really, stretching the imagination but what think you of this? Just stumbled across these pictures and wondered if Gebr. Faller had something like this in mind for: B-91 and still to this day as 110091 "Hintertupfingen" (Way in the back of beyond, rustic, rural ) https://bahnbauten-h0.blogspot.c...nkt-hintertupfingen.html And this in real life Haltestelle Wieblingen (Heidelberg), built the same year as the first appearance of -91 in the Faller catalog (near the bottom of the page): http://www.s197410804.on....de/ABC/ABCBahnhoefe.htm and this in Zeuthen, built ca. 1870s, which is now part of the megalopolis of Berlin (just SE of Brl-Schönfeld) - about half-way down: https://theodorfontane.d...ontane-und-die-bahnen-3/ Am I "pushing the envelope" a bit? Confused They look plausible, but then the Brothers were quite the imaginative group BigGrin (perhaps I am just trying to make the shoe fit...) So...want to add a bit of AMS to your Hintertupfingen layout? https://www.ofdb.de/film/20748, I do enjoy pushing the envelope! I am channeling or cross-referencing, or what ever that thing is from this... https://www.stummiforum.de/t2156...ingen-Kleinstanlage.html And we have from this: https://www.historisches-lexikon...Vizinal-_und_Lokalbahnen "The conductor jumps off the train in front of the Oberniedertupfing local train station and runs ahead to the train station... because he is also the station manager!" I welcome comments, etc....Enjoy! Edited by user 08 July 2024 14:10:00(UTC) \| Reason: Not specified

Faller has reissued the model in 2020 as 110204 "Pusemuckel" in a beige-ish color, with still our dark green accents and running concurrently with the 110091 in dark green. However, it will take a few more years for this one to become "Collectible/Vintage" p. s. I have no idea what "Pusemuckel" means! I guess it is the name of the town?

I found this by Googleing Pusemuckel: "Seit dem 19. Jahrhundert wird „Posemuckel“ (oder abgewandelt „Pusemuckel“) als Synonym für „kleine, abgelegene und provinzielle Ortschaft“ benutzt, ähnlich Hintertupfingen." Translation: Since the 19th century, “Posemuckel” (or modified “Pusemuckel”) has been used as a synonym for “small, remote and provincial village”, similar to Hintertupfingen. So the building kit colour and name have changed, but it still has the same hidden meaning, haha! Cheers, Harold.
