So you are a Rivarossi collector too? I'm a Rivarossi model collector only and my favourites are the models made in Como and in 1:80 scale. Così anche tu collezioni Rivarossi? Io collezioniono solo modellini Rivarossi ed i miei preferiti sono quelli prodotti a Como ed in scala 1:80.
do these sleeping cars have anything to do with the similar coaches made by Jouef? A comparison should answer this question. Here some photos of the Jouef coaches made in the 70s.
Don´t be irritated. The original wheels were substituted by RP25-wheels and a Symoba short coupling was added.
these are two totally different models. The Rovarossi is a exCIWL Type MU, while the Jouef is a Type T2S. The T2S has smaller windows and corrugated roof (similar to Eurofima coaches).
