Excellent news ! I was pretty excited when Sabre's G10 was announced but this kit looks really, really nice. Great wood grain and the undercarriage excellent detail ! In the sprue shots I didn't see any track. Tat, do you know if there will be some included ? I sure hope that there is a set of Deutsche Bahn decals included. Thanks Libor for a well detailed and much needed subject !

Hello @ivanhoe, here's feedback received from Thunder Model: "...we will not include tracks in these kits, most of guys have some spares already from other loco and wagon kits and there are also nice sets available from Miniart or Trumpeter, no need to increase our kits cost. We will see feedback, if wanted, we can consider for future rolling stock" Cheers, Tat

These are some really nice representations of German rolling stock in a principally civilian role. Anything from WW1 to the -what- 1970s? would do, and talk about detail: they're practically what we think of as "craftsmen" kits without the need to work with wood veneer planks. Nice.

Hi Tat, If you are in contact with them then maybe you could suggest that they could sell tracks as separate accessory kits/parts ? Doesn't increase the cost of the rolling stock kits .. / Robin
