Hi, Iossif thank you very much for your comments. Actually the Gagarin model will be released as a non-driven model, in a set containing The locomotive and two Marchetti passenger cars in a collective case - at least at this stage. Maybe later it will be retrofitted, provided that there will be a respective interest or request by interested fans.

Nice Gagarin Kosta.
Very "SPAPish" colours.
Congratulations

Very nice work, Kosta, congrats+++

For the anecdot, the peloponnese railwaymen used to refer to this engine as "Gagaris" (Γκαγκάρης) and not Gagarin! it probably sounded more natural to our greek ears

Greetings from Switzerland (back home)

Update 30.11.21 The project Gagarin has undergone some modifications concerning some proportional corrections as well as the fully new interior including the Engine Assy, which will be installed in the Mark I version (Dummy) of the Model. I'm currently reworking the Chassis and under frame supporting the wheelsets and rods. Pictures of the production sample will follow shortly.
Officially the model is now in Beta 2 Phase. Production will follow shortly before Christmas time. Anyone, who is interested in the Mark I Version, please contact me per Email or Messenger. Thank you

Update 31.12.21
These are the two Mark I versions of the same model. The first one (SEK) is the older one in light livery, red wheelset, rods and transmission and of course side mirrors. The second one is the "late" version with grey chassis and the OSE logo. If you are interested in this model, you can contact me directly or send a message. Thank you!
