Добавлено: Чт ноя 04, 2021 9:28 pm
Hi to all, i am not Russian so i will let google do its translation job...if it is not working please tell me.
I am building the AA20, yes a other idiot.
I don't want to hijack a other topic, a lot of thanks for the info posted there, really a lot of thanks.

Thanks again for this build and ALL the info provided!!!!
My childhood wish is coming true/going to happen/in the make.
End goal is live steam AA20, but first plastics and Electra with batteries(li ion laptop cells)
I came this far that i could have this loco run on a 5 meter radii curve without trouble.
I made the wheelbase a 1.5 mm smaller (flange to flange)so it can go on a 10 meter circle.
Scale 1 to 32 by the way. As the dutch are calling it scale 1 (spoor een) 45mm track width as standard track(143,5 cm) so not the Russian width track(152.4 cm)
We all know that there where two AA20's build.
Both where not paid for, but one remains or was send back to empire Germany and converted into a 5 or six wheeler
But how ever i think that the picture from 1965 from the scrap yard is a different loco then the original video.
For several detailed reasons, i will post them as i will go.
Above the front runners where the steam pipes goes into the ash chamber up into the chimney i found some differences...
Now for the windows(or do i see ghosts?)

I wish i could post pictures to show the difference between the windows.
With best regards Igor(yes it is my true name after my great grandfather he was Ukrainian and drove a steam train in the Netherlands)
