First i'd like to welcome you in this forum.

Now we take a look at your Problem. I think the best way for you
is to write letter to the performer of the Taurus and to tell them
what's your problem.

Maybe the'll send you a copy of an blueprint.
I think it's SIEMENS in Germany who has build this locomotive.

An other way should be to write to the german train-magazin MIBA

http://www.miba.de/

they have the best connections all over the world for
selfmade train building and will know, what's to do.

Hope i could help you an we will see you back again often.

Hello,

Also, mal als freie Übersetzung:

Roberto aus Italien sucht Konstruktionspläne für die Taurus-Reihe, besonders des Taurus 3 der ÖBB (BR 1216).
Er würde gerne den Taurus als N-Modell nachbauen.

RE: Taurus drawings

Hello Kai,
Yes I do!!!!
But, unfortunately the taurus 3 is a different maschine!
The taurus series is formed by different generations of locos.
The taurus 3 is, in a way, a sort of hybrid between the 4 pantograph-E189 (roof and doors) with smooth flanks and a taurus (frontals).
The major problem to me it is to reproduct the roof of the loco, where a ''wood'' of isolators (similar to the E189 but not the same!) and AT wires allows the real machine to circulate both in AC and DC electric networks across Europe. You can find pictures of this loco under the name of OBB 1216, Europa, RTS, Weltrekord 357km/h.

Last year such a loco signed the new World record for an electric loco (357 km/h).
For example, see also www.railcolor.net to learn about this matter.

The liveries of these locos are very interesting to me. I already finished standard and special liveries on my PC for this loco; they wait for the model (in plasticard) to be added!!!!!

But, anyone -I suppose- would verify his own project according to the original drawings, in order to make a good model.

See also galerie section to see my works on regular tauruses.

thank you anyway
Greetings
Roberto Bracciante
