Hi All,

Actually, this is part of a series of leaflets that were distributed by the Public Relations Office @ OSE during the middle to late 70s. For us, this was at that time the only technical documentation we had about the OSE locomotives, and we were expected to be happy with them...

Large rake of coaches for an international train, isn't it? ;)

Photo Balkanmodels: August 1986. An unidentified A300 is hiding in one of the stalls of the Engine Shed Thessaloniki. On the adjoining road a solitary Plasser & Theurer 08-32 DN machine.

Time for some modelling at last :mrgreen:

The parts of the original body are being placed on the resin one produced by Modellingcentre

Always pleasing to see a busy workbench. Good luck with the conversions, BarbaP. I would be interested to see the resin body closer. I was also wondering: How easy is it to remove the detail parts from the original body undamaged? How do you fit the electrics etc.

Thanks Christo, I'm going to get some close up shots of the body and the detail parts.
They all come of the original body very easy and fit well on the conversion body.

Just a quick preview into 2 models of the OSE A-302 and A-306,
transferred into A-301-310 by Babaros and professional wheathered by one of the leading
adresses in Germany Andreas Mock - thank you to both of them.
