Steve sorry, wrong and wrong. The couplers are silver, Bing had similar but in black. Truck are different to Bub.

The car was made by the Manufacturer Doll in the late 30s, buffers and couplers are orginal, but was a passenger car, the chains and the wood are homemade.



Greetings

Arne, i appreciate you once again shooting my improper conjectures out of the sky ha. But thank you for the accurate info- you are such a great source of knowledge. I figured it was likely modified based on the slots for tabs on the bottom. I thought the trucks were Bub because the rest just didn’t fit with my other two guesses(Fandor or Distler). I see what you mean regarding the couplers- they also ”hang” lower.I’m happy to know that the frame, couplers and buffers are original- this train is my first Doll et Cie ! I have some decent prewar Bodies that could use a decent frame and fit on this car so that’s probably what I’ll do. Thanks again!
