Building the IC-2 Flexliner:

The IC-2 flexliner is the edition of the AD-Tranz /Bombardier trains in Denmark for the private railways. In reality the IC-2 is never to be seen on narrow gauge. Model in 1:22,5.Length over the buffers:1300mm.

Here is the work plan. You can get a bigger one by e-mailing me. 1.7 mb!

On the reason why the LGB radies are too small, I needed to reduce the length 33%. IC-2 is also broader as the normal LGB trains. Perhaps it will be nesssesary to give the train his own line. My IC-2 runs up apon the pergola.

Now, letīs arrange the front and backlights with automatic shift for lights in the travel direction. Best to do it now, later on will be difficult. I have used yellow and red 5mm two-electrode valves and a resistor of 680 ohm.
