Ex cinno

Thanks Asper for your post. I'm glad you enjoyed it Man with a hat. Said from you I consider it a great compliment, although I think my E444, the Turtle, is what I did best.

Thanks you all for your nice words.

Thanks you all for your words. By the way the carriage weighs 822 grams

Yes TechnicRCRacer, determine the right proprotion for the windows it took me some time.

For now display only but space for a motor is not a problem.

This passenger coaches was built in nearly 1500 specimens in the 1930's and 40's and deservedly named Centoporte (one hundred doors), because each compartment had its own outside access. Its width is set to 7 studs and it took me more than 1400 pieces to reproduce it.

Hi Vliebricker, thank for your words. Anyway the model you found in internet is not the same i reproduced here. My D 145 is one of the 2000 series while your is of the 1000 series. And one of the the difference is just that "kind of bump at the cabine". D145 00 by Claudio, su Flickr Here some pictures from the other side of the D 145, that is a little different.

My latest project, always related to Italian historical trains, is the diesel locomotive D 145, built for the F.S. by the Fiat Ferroviaria Savigliano in the early 80's. For its unusual orange livery was immediately renamed "Lobster". Width of the moc is set to 7 studs.

The BB 150 is an electric diesel locomotive produced in 13 units, at the end of the 50's, by the Officine Reggiane for Italian Southest Railways. Here I reproduced the number BB 162, which has been completely restored some years ago and is now used for tourism and historical recollections. Its width is as always at 7 studs.

Thank you all for your nice words.

Your diorama looks really good, with so much details to see around.

Hi Beck thank for your suggestion. May be that bogie look close to the front but that's exactly what I saw in some photos of the BB 169. Anyway I'll try to move it a stud back to see how it look. Thank LEGO Train 12 Volts for your words, but i think my collection does not even approach yours. I totally agree with your words: seven forever....

Hi all. Just in time to present it on 22 and 23 April 2017 at Ludicomix in Empoli I completed a new italian diesel locomotive: the BB 169. Built in 1970 by the Reggian Mechanical Workshops for the italian F.S. was purchased by the Southeast Railways in 1991. Today it's used in the composition of the historic train "Valle d'Itria Express", along with the carriages Carminati & Toselli and the post wagon DU 951.

HI all. My last moc is a DU 950, an Italian mail wagon with two axles built in 1937 by Officine Meccaniche Stanga of Padova. Here it is reproduced in 7 studs, with the original livery Brown and Isabella, the classic colors of the Italian Railways. In recent years its fully restored version was used in the historic train "Salento Express". Hope you enjoy.
