There are only DC, DCC and Sound versions of this model. There is no provision for an AC variant.

the more I look at it the more I like it!!! I guess it's even greater to hold it!!!

some closer photos of the original that will point out the level of detail presented on this little gem
and pose the question: isn't the roof painted grey like the upper part of the loco?

For my friend who wanted to find out the slow speed range of this shunting loco and its ability to negotiate points without stalling ;) . Unfortunately I do not have any better recording device than my phone :oops: .

OK, no need to say, the movement looks to be perfect and that sound is just impressive!!!!!!!
Congratulations to the fellows at Limitbahn!
At the end it was worth waiting for the "Kourambiedes" :mrgreen:

Dear friends,

Firstly, I am sorry that yahoo are so incapable of fixing the current page loading issues we are experiencing. Secondly, a lot of you have been constantly writing to me about the Faur models. Though these models have been delayed, they are still being prepared and will be for sale as soon as it is possible, given the fact that Limitbahn has other work also.

Great news. The gradual delivery of these models has already started. I will be writing to you individually, in due course, requesting payment in full, prior to dispatch. Please check your emails and respond. Lack of response would necessitate my looking for alternative buyers.

PS. Our two Romanian friends who ordered one locomotive each have not replied to their email concerning the type DC, DCC or sound that they want. Please note what I have stated above.
