Garden Railway Forum

Looking for something completely different, I found this little beauty. It's a one-of-a-kind articulated railcar from the 750mm Saxon narrow gauge. One very unusual feature- look at the centre "power car", especially its couplings and wheels.

What a strange arrangement, almost like a development of the County Donegal Railcars, but taken to extremes. I suppose it would have the advantage of isolating the engine noise from the passengers, which is something that is very much not the case with standard gauge DMU's in this country.

I'm sure someone with more model engineering experience than me could soon work out how to drive the bogies with UJ's.
I am intrigued with the design but couldn't cope with all of those windows!!!
