      Locomotives

      The only Austrian loco I have. A ÖBB 93 with a Giesl chimney. I named it Gabriel!

      Found this engine on eBay some years ago, quite liked it, so I bought it. It’s made by Kleinbahn, It runs ok, but I don’t run It all that much because the motor is wired backwards. I don’t know how to fix it yet…

      However, I’m hoping by Sunday, this won’t be the only Austrian locomotive I own. ^^

        What scale is this? Looks a lot like what Marklin makes.

          A typical Kleinbahn issue with the backwards wired motor. You just need to take off the body shell and switch around the two wires connected to the motor by screws. 🙂

            @ImperialExpress306.02 This is what I’m greeted with then the body is off. I’m guessing It’s the two screws at the top and bottom?
            The wires seen here connect the lamps.

              @GothicLocomotive Ah, that’s quite a modern motor already. There sadly are no more screws, you just need to unsolder the springs in front of the motor as marked in the first picture. I have a smiliar motor Kleinbahn model at the shop which came in quite handy for this case.
