Time to build a dampflok. This is another beautiful model by Herr Pirling of a very fast express loco built in 1871 for the Koln-Mindener Eisenbahn. I was not able to find any other info, so if you have some, please chip in. The model has seven sheets for the engine and four sheets for the tender, and comprehensive instructions in German.
I ask that you feel free to comment in German, my ability to read it is getting better all the time.
Just to be perverse, I am building the tender first. Here is a photo of the photo and the very nice drawing of the tender, suitable for framing Also, you can see the parts from the first sheet cut out. The picture of the three wheels shows the three steps to cutting them out: 1) scissors, 2) knife, and 3)knife. All of the wheels are backed with .05 mm card, then the two wheel haves are glued together, and tin foil strips are applied to the bottom edge.
