Hello all,

This is my first attempt to create a Dutch train called DDM (=DoubleDeckerMaterial).
In real the train has a engine part and passengerwagons or a seperate loc (17/18xx) with the
passengerwagons.
In these pictures I put all in!
The trains are designed using parts that are (easily) available, this was my goal.
If I would like them to be realistic as possible I needed so many rare parts in different colors, it wasn't possible. ( I want to build them for real too!).

A special thanks to James Mathis for his ldraw file of the 17xx.
Seeing his file, I'm was very impressed with his building techniek and ldraw skills, I HAVE MUCH TO LEARN.
THANKS JAMES.


***** update 11 may 2003 ******

Pictures of the real thing are up !
Still waiting for some parts but I'm almost finished.

Thanks to Carol of Amazing Bricks ( @BL) (AGAIN!!) for the parts and the extra service she provided.
Thanks to James, not only for the ldraw file of the 17xx but for the basic design of the traincars too.
I saw a picture of one he builded and expanded the design from there!



Any suggestion, comments, etc,
