Help for identifying this Fleishmann model
« on: March 16, 2019, 02:17:31 pm »
Hi everyone,
I wonder if one of you can help me to identify this Fleishmann model ?  It have some features of the models I have dated from 1946-47...

I believe it's a 120/2 and matches the 1951 model on the Ventix pages

Wow!  What a rapid answer!
You are right, it match exactly, even the scheme color!
What confused me is the typical after war boiler base style and the insciption "Made in Germany, US Zone" below.
I also have a 125-4 with that base style with the insciption "made in US territory, Germany" below it, who's became FDA in 1949.
The color scheme of that one is identify for 1949-50 by Ventix though...

Smooth as a _ _ _     _ _ _ _ (insert your favorite idiom).
