Kaelble truck

When I visited the Baggermodelle office at http://www.baggermodelle.net/ in Berne ( I am the translator for this must see magazin, I recieved a phantastic gift of this truck. In the past Deutsche Bundesbahn used a truck like this with a Culemeyer road roller to transport freight cars to factories without a track connection to the main line.

the original advertising prospectus for the Deutsche Reichsbahn.
and from a different angle
Just a beautiful model. I have become a collector of diecast trucks and cars, to match the period I am modelling, the time between 1950 to 1962. This gives me a lot of leeway and some wonderfull models to collect, these give life to the layout.
