@@Joschgamzug thanks for the info...I own a medium size 4.30 x 1.60 layout, with mixed R1 and R2 curves....I know about long wagons as most of manufacturers make passenger cars in exact scale, which means 30.3cm, while marklin stays at 28.2....i have ordered a couple of Acme wagons that I found at 28-29, which I guess will not have problems....my only concern was regarding wheels....since your experience says no problems, then I feel relieved 😌!! Thanks again
i think you put together pieces of 1990 era and 2016 era: that is livrea ex frecciabianca ( similar to xmpr introduced in 1994...but absolutely not the same era!): it was introduced in early 2016 when frecciabianca (red and grey) going retired...in 1994 born xmpr with first logo...in 2001 xmpr with second logo and in 2008 with third logo...the painting are similar but in the xmpr they were green on basement not grey, and the roof not grey lined, that come from frecciabianca livrea grey on basement...but in 2016... www.ferrovie.it/portale/leggi.php?id=1809 examples: LIMA EXPERT HL5005 is about 1994-2000 ( first version logo) roco 74330 is about 2001/2008 ( second version logo) RIVAROSSI HR4282 is about 2008-today ( third version logo ) Lima Expert HL5006 / Acme 55153/63 from 2016( based on frecciabianca livery modified to unify to xmpr made on some unused frecciabianca coaches ) Let minimal variation to years : ex in 2003 you certainly could see a first logo circulating because of not immediate repaintings ( usually made in maintence programmed dates)… let me excuse for not perfect english...i’m italian
ACME wagons on marklin tracks....any problems?
Servus, no problems but you need large curves for the long waggons and they don´t like large slopes. LG Josch.
