Y6 and Coupling

Post by Steamchris »

Hi guys,
here a new Video about the Y6...

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wFYHOFGnfiU[/youtube]

This video shows the production of a test for a couplingsystem
of narrowgauge locomotives calls Scharfenberkupplung.
The couplingsystem is for a scale 1 locomotive , we have to make
12 pieces for the cars and the locomotive.
This system exists since more then a 100 years and works at this time on the
german highspeed train "ICE". Of course with upgrades ,for example air/electric
Connections.This model was only for testing the function in small Scale,the glas
is for watching the function and to see possible mistakes.
Hope you understand a bit of my english :oops:
