Whether it’s a fall from the layout, a change of era, broken parts, or any other reason: sometimes parts of a gauge 1 model end up in the hobby box or spare parts bin. And then, suddenly, an idea strikes about what to do with them. The Ziegler brothers turned a Länderbahn car body into a shed, very close to a prototype.

Que ce soit à cause d'une chute sur le réseau, d'un changement d'époque, de pièces cassées ou pour toute autre raison : il arrive parfois que des éléments d'un modèle à l'échelle 1 finissent dans la boîte à bricolage ou le bac à pièces de rechange. Et puis, soudain, une idée surgit sur la manière de les utiliser. Les frères Ziegler ont transformé une caisse de wagon de la Länderbahn en remise, très fidèle au prototype.

The replica of the nostalgic train in gauge 1 was still missing one car, which generations had used as a simple toy in H0. In the end, it became a realistic-looking homemade model.

Il manquait encore un wagon au train nostalgique reproduit à l'échelle 1, que des générations avaient utilisé comme simple jouet à l'échelle H0. Au final, c'est une construction artisanale réaliste qui a été choisie.

Model railways are often associated with nostalgia, as they bring the real thing into your home in the form of handy models. The standard scale is usually 1:87, H0. But how about recreating an ancient H0 freight train from Märklin in 1:32? The Ziegler brothers have successfully attempted to do just that.

Les trains miniatures sont souvent associés à la nostalgie, car ils permettent de recréer chez soi l'univers ferroviaire réel sous forme de modèles réduits pratiques. L'échelle standard est généralement de 1:87, H0. Mais que diriez-vous de recréer un ancien train de marchandises H0 de Märklin à l'échelle 1:32 ? Les frères Ziegler ont réussi à relever ce défi.

Freight cars are in use throughout Europe, so there is reason to be excited about a new annoucement.
