OR BR 189 / ES64F4

Hello everyone.

First of all I want to apologize for not speaking German correctly. I am more comfortable in English ... I hope that the online translation tools will not distort my purpose.

Some may know me. I am a French creator. Last year I made available to the American community two iconic steam locomotives from the Pennsylvania Railroad. The T1 in Beta version still under development and the steam turbin locomotive S2 with 3D cab.

Today I come here to introduce my latest creation. This is the BR 189 DB in VM50Hz version. This machine is extremely detailed (120,000 poygons), and can only be used under Open Rails.

I think realese a beta version very soon. I will devote my time to developing the DB version for the Netherlands and the version with automatic coupling. Then I'll do the private versions: MRCE and others. All this takes time, and I hope to have enough to carry out this project.

MFG

Thanks Richie for your kind message!

To answer your questions, I will indeed propose several heights for the pantograph. For now the model is set at 6m. The model shown is part of the 32 BR189s dedicated for cross-border services between Germany, Poland and Czech Republic. I will adapt this model according to the service D / PL and D / CZ.

The 3D cabin is indeed envisaged. But it is a huge work. Knowing that I spend only one to two hours a week on 3D and often less ... This can take a lot of time. For the PRR T1s, I've been working on it for almost a year. And it’s time and nerves consuming!
