Here is my latest train moc. I decided to enlarge the previous green and white vossloh shunter and add doors and compartments. This is now in the Swiss SBB Cargo livery. These engines work on the north, south journey from Germany through to Italy.

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Love the colors! The CARGO lettering looks great as well.

Why call it a shunter? I thought shunters were engines that work shunting yards or do short trips. In Europe this type of engine is often used to pull freight trains over long distances.
Is this one slightly longer than the green/white one?

I've got CDO. It's like OCD, but with the letters in alphabetical order. As they should be!

Yes this is longer than the green and white model. These vossloh engines are used in many roles from shunting to long distance hauling.
