[du-bousquetaire]

Hello again:
There is a short sequence on the folowing Video where one can see the 241P in action it is in a general overlook video of the railexpo it is situated near 1/3 of the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=7WyBGp0vsbQ
My scratchbuilt Postal car and PLM first class OCEM car behind it. By the way the loco is offered for meth or coal firing with all the sundries included in the kit. The Twerenbolds being quite keen on coal firing themselves. As can clearly be seen in the video the engine is equiped with submarine type lights for looking over the motion of the loco in night time beneath the running boards as was comon practice on unified (standardised) SNCF locos of post war construction. This turned out very usefull in their lives as these were quite powerfull locos they were often used on long overnight trains. The engeneer could oil up in any kind of weather. This is typical of the many refinements built into this loco. The rail expo 2012 photos on the Aster Europa site show my Pennsy train and K4 in full swing. This year I bought all French: My I40 C, 232 U 1, my Nord Atlantic and my liberation mike and a whole rake of French scratchbuilt cars. Unfortunatly I cannot afford to buy one myself as much as I would like to. I beleive they will only be producing locos for which they have had a firm order. So if you are interested, now is the time. ( Usual disclaimer, I just happened to be there.)
