About This Item

Side shot.jpg

This little model railroad coach used to have its own locomotive - a nice steam-engine called Cierny Pochabel ('Black Mad-cap')... but, as time went by, Cierny Pochabel stopped operating, due to its age. So the coach nicknamed itself The Railroad Hitchiker and set off to travel the world, looking for other locomotives.
It would like to travel primarily by railroad, of course. It would be happy to meet some friendly locomotive of according model size (I believe it's TT) and get a ride, just to try out different locomotives and different model railways... and then move on. (The dog tag is attached to the coach by a small spring-hook, so it can be removed for the ride and put back [!!!] afterwards.)
Stories and pictures related to railways and the TB's travels - pictures of the TB with locomotives of both model and real size (especially steam-engines), with trains, at interesting railway stations etc. - will be highly appreciated! Thanks.

[[CZ]] Tento vagonek mel kdysi svou vlastni lokomotivu, krasnou parni masinku prezdivanou Cierny Pochabel. Postupem casu ale Cierny Pochabel doslouzil a dnes uz nejezdi. Vagonek se tedy rozhodl vyrazit do sveta a na svych cestach hledat jine lokomotivy.
Samozrejme ze nejradeji bude cestovat vlakem. Rad by potkal pratelsky naladenou lokomotivu odpovidajici modelove velikosti (pokud se nemylim, je to TT), ktera by ho svezla - aby si zkusil jak se jezdi s ruznymi lokomotivami a po ruznych modelovych kolejistich. A pak zase dal do sveta... (Psi znamka tohoto travelbugu je pripevnena malou karabinkou, je tedy mozne, pokud mate modelovou zeleznici a nechate vagonek trosku projet, psi znamku lehce sundat. Pak ji ale nezapomente dat zpet !!!)
Jakekoliv prihody a hlavne obrazky z cest tohoto vagonku (treba obrazky vagonku s lokomotivami, at uz modelovymi ci skutecnymi.. zvlast pak parnimi, s vlaky vubec, obrazky vagonku na zajimavych nadrazich, u zajimavych zeleznicnich staveb atd. atd.), ktere pripojite k logu, udelaji tady u nas na vagonkove domacim nadrazi velkou radost! Diky!
