I photographed a hard-working class 50, a 044, an 038, and more at Aldingen in October 1970. The first of the two freight trains contained a surprise.

Proform has completed a small batch of Rhaetian Railway's Ge 2/4 electric locomotive. The model for gauge 1 is Swiss made and runs on meter gauge tracks.

Because of the almost sensational demand for gauge 1 models of the class 44 or 043 and 044, I looked into my archive. The tremendous steam development of this heavy three-cylinder freight locomotive made for spectacular pictures.

At the open-air museum in Neuhausen ob Eck, model builders who value detail and village interiors will find inspiration to recreate.
