Replica of a Museum Legend: The Marklin 18045 CCS 700

Beautiful replica and I'm glad to see it. One exception though, I'm not certain about the head and tail lights.. They look like LED's in a big bulb housing. Personnally, I would prefer the real bulbs

I agree, and will find out if we can replace the bulbs with old fashioned glow bulbs when I get my model. I assume it will be easy to do.

Die LED Lampen gefallen mir überhaupt nicht. Da hätten Glühbirnen mit Schraubfassung dran gehört.

Andreas mentions that he does not like the LED lights on this model... the good old "glow" lightbulbs should have been installed. We completely agree, and hope that the LED bulbs can be replaced for the original style bulbs. We will see and investigate when the model gets released.

@@ajckids i would only buy the crocodile, when the bulbs can be replaced. But I fear, that this is impossible. When you look into the video then have a look on the detail, when color of light changes from white to red. That is not realized with a normal LED (with to pins). So in my opinion, there will be no chance to change to "analog light bulbs". But we will see...
