FRANCE CFD VIVARAIS HO metric in 1940/1950 - franckcombe - 07-30-2024 Hi, I have still not finished my mexican layout in on30 but I will start in parallel a french CFD VIVARAIS at HOm scale in the  1940/1950 era. It's a typical rural line at metric gauge. When I was young ant today too I use to ride on this train that still exist as touristic line. It's mountainous train with small halt or railways station. I Will do 3 small scene in radio chassis of the years 1940 / 1950 and the radios will be link together. s-l1600 by franck combe, sur Flickr IMG_5688 by franck combe, sur Flickr IMG_5687 by franck combe, sur Flickr IMG_5685 by franck combe, sur Flickr RE: FRANCE CFD VIVARAIS HO metric in 1940/1950 - tompm - 07-30-2024 Can't wait to see how this comes out.

You are lucky to have ridden such a beautiful route.      This will be one of the most creative uses of a radio chassis ever done. I see many awards for this in your future. Thanks for sharing your builds with us.  Charlie RE: FRANCE CFD VIVARAIS HO metric in 1940/1950 - BR60103 - 07-30-2024 Franck: what is CFD? I assume Chemin de Fer ...
