Fremolayout from austria

Fremolayout from austria

Postby Papadopoulus » Sun Mar 09, 2014 7:36 am

Good morning, my name is christof.
I am 42 years old and come from loweraustria.
my interests are tunneling, model railway and greece.

I want to introduce you to my module layout.
I have built my layout on the fremo standard with some modifications.
For example I have a track helix and a second level for a shadow station.
The whole system operates exclusively with a pc control, as software I use rocrail.

here you can see some photos of my layout

I would appreciate your feedback.

please excuse my bad English

regards
christof

Excellent work Christof. I love the photo with the narrow gauge loco. I am very happy you joinned us. Maybe one day your layout will gain a Greek branch line extension. ;)

welcome to our company Christof.
it's obvious that you have done a great work on your layout! a lot of operation possibility and many spots of interest, with movement, light and sound.
I was impressed by the second photo at your post above. only the electrification wires indicate that this is actually a model!!!
nice to see Monastiraki, Sintagmatos Platz and Via Appia in an Austrian town too :D

I'm looking forward to see more of your modeling projects and maybe some photos from your visits down here

* theo, I think you gonna love this shot with the fan waving the Olympiakos banner :mrgreen:

Good morning

a Greek layout is a great idea, for example the track between Leptokaria and Platamon or a part of pilion.

The main problem are the vehicles, they are very hard to get.
I've been looking for some time, an OSE 120 with the new logo and the right wagon or the pilion-lok.
It is also not so easy to get suitable building for me.

Christof,

You can still get the 120 loco at http://www.e-kalfakis.gr/electric-train ... -6764.html . The other stock you mention including Pelion is not being produced unless someone knows differently.

here is the complete list of the OSE models still available at Kalfakis http://www.e-kalfakis.gr/advanced_searc ... &x=64&y=10

I think, Christo still has some coaches available, like the green SACHSENMODELLE and white/red ALPHA TRAINS set http://balkanmodels.biz/rollingstock.html
you could also ask him about the MLW, ALSTHOM etc http://balkanmodels.biz/motivepower.html

you may get an OSE ADTRANZ at ebay.de

about the buildings, there are quite some available
https://www.facebook.com/erail.gr
https://www.facebook.com/Modellingcentre

or you could better go the Jonmood's way, with some scratch building, saving money for the rolling stock ;) viewtopic.php?f=14&t=21

If you want to know what OSE model has ever been released, ready made or conversion and even more, have a look at our fellow and member Olympus' blog http://hellenicrailwaymodels.blogspot.gr/

I hope among these links there is something new to you :)
