My HO scale railway models
Reference periods (according to MOROP)
Era IIId (1961-1970) and IVa (1971-1979).
This implies:
- Little steam for regular trains in IVa era
- UIC unified marking for coaches and wagons
- “Framed” SNCF logo:
- First Corail coaches, but predominance of DEV, USI and UIC coaches
- Concerning sleeping cars, transition from CIWL to the TEN network (in 1971)
- No HST!
See an interesting topic in the Loco-Revue forum about the seventies.
