New NGG 16 / Design S. Favre

Post by kandnwlr » Sat May 03, 2014 9:16 am

I visited the Freienbach Large Scale exhibition, and met Sebastien Fabre, who was displaying his new electrically-powered NGG 16 locomotives, made using LGB bogies, plastic and whitemetal castings. He used the original drawings and has made long trips to the WHR to photograph the real thing. The result is, in my opinion, extremely impressive. They are essentially hand-built, and available in analogue, digital and R/C-battery power. My camera phone photos don´t really do justice to the result, but give an indication of what can be expected. He can reached at sebastien.fabre (at) bluewin.ch, and speaks excellent English (French and German). Expect prices of between CHF 4000-4500 (GBP 2750-3000 ish).
