Hi, My present project on my work bench: a Plasser & Theurer 09-3x Track Maintenance Machine by Kibri Ref. 16050. Photos of the real "beast": Thanks. Regards, Ayala Botto
Hi, Now a first look to the model of the Plasser & Theurer 09-3x Track Maintenance Machine produced by Kibri Ref. 16050 Thanks. Regards, Ayala Botto
Very cool. i've always liked selection of vehicles by kibri. I expect you'll do a very nice build on it.
Nice I've never seen one in HO before; I have one in N Scale. I'll be interested in your build of this model. Looks like you've done your research so I'm sure it will work out to be a great project
Hi, It will be a runner model but with no motorization. For that reason I'll replace the original plastic wheels with metal wheels from ROCO recomended by Kibri as I use Märklin system. DC metal wheels works find on AC system, but the opposite will cause you a lot of problems!!! By the way, perhaps you could help me with the following question: Parts numbered 52,53,54,55,56 and 57 should be painted in yellow or in green like part 51? The instruction sheet of this model is available at the link: http://www.modelmania.com.pl/images/...kibri16090.pdf Thanks in advance. Regards, Ayala Botto
Plasser & Theurer 09-3x Track Maintenance Machine - Kibri Ref. 16050 Hi, Some photos of this on going project: Thanks. Regards, Ayala Botto
Making some nice progress indeed. Should be finished in no time. I have to read back over to see if you mentioned the weels being used. But looks great I read back through and I think I understand the wheels are Marklin plastic?
Hi, I used RAL 1004 made at a local store. As far as I know RAL 1004 and RAL 1016 are the closest colours that can be used in Plasser & Theurer track maintenance machines and RAL 1016 is known by "Yellow 24" at Plasser. Hope it helps. Thanks. Regards, Ayala Botto
Hi, The Kibri models only includes plastic wheels that cannot be used unless you pretend to make a static diorama. Kibri instructions sheets recomends ROCO metal wheels. DC System: Ref. 40194 for 9 mm wheel diameter Ref. 40198 for 11mm wheel diameter AC System (Märklin): Ref. 85603 for 9 mm wheel diameter Ref. 85600 for 11mm wheel diameter I choosed to install DC wheels althought I use Märklin system because it allows me to use this model also on DC tracks. Hope it helps. Thanks. Regards, Ayala Botto
Thanks much because I sure would like to build one for my HO track to go along with the MOW Cars I have.
