Thanks for the answer Stefane.
I knew that cars 805 and 806 had the cut at the stripe, Ididn't know about the 807. Since you have sent photos I'm sure it's right.
Could you please tell us which cars had the inscription on the stripe? I guess it was a late addition in a T2 style ;)

Thanks Stefane. I'm really interested to find out :D
I'm trying to spot any "mistakes" on the model, it's with no doubt great to have it as it is.

I think though that ACME has produced a late livery.
During the 90's they all had a thin white line over the windows that was omitted during the 1999 REV.
I would have liked it if it was there, as I was a bit lazy to paint it in my conversions...

Dear everyone, is this an ex-German sleeping car? I thought it was some kind of Dunakeszi prototype. The picture was taken at Budapest West Railway Station in the company of Hungarian wagons and an M62! Thanks Mladen
