Hi everyone,

today, I want to share with you my version of the Rheingold trans europ express (TEE).

 

It was one of the frist fast european long-distance trains. 

Showing the train made of a 9v-motorized BR103 engine and 7 coaches - I will first of all share some pictures:

First of ann frond-view from the bridge:

A colser look to the end-part; especially to the restaurant coach.

 

Engine and one coach at a platform

 

 

Clooser look to a regualr coach

 

 

The doors can be opened

 

 

In addition, all coaches have some details like a bar in the restaurant coach, seats or luggage in the mail coach - but there a didn't made and photos.

 

Of course, also a video is existing ;-)
Maybe there you'll recognize some more details. :)

 

 

 

 

I hope, you enjoyed regarding these imressions.

Every kind of feedback is welcome any time. :)

 

Kind regards

 

Niklas

 

 

 

A great build, and some of the interior detailing is still evident from the exterior views, e.g., the "window blinds" in the bathroom of the car.

And are those genuine Emerald Night coach windows?

Oh, nice. Great to see another fantastic TEE. And with some decent amount of coaches as well. Nice variation and good detailing in those.

Thank you! :) Well, the train is almost too long it seems. On the other hand one can never have too many coaches. ;)

No, the windows are the only parts which are not original from lego.

 

Therefore, I bought the Lepin 21005 (Copy of Emerald) 6 times for less than 40€ each. So on could say, I paid 4€ each window with glass. 
In addition, I now have a nice collection of fake Emerald Engines. (The original one, too of course. ;) )
