Excellent stuff, when I was a kid a had some Hobby Rivarossi locos that I built from kit and still have. I had a Lima blue dutch electric loco 1220. I liked them all but at the time, Rivarossi had a better reputation then Lima. Now that I am older, I can appreciate the engineering simplicity of Lima. I think that Lima will outlast a Rivarossi any time. I have lots of old Limas now and they all run perfectly. Simple but very effective. Now there is so much emphasis on detail, which you cannot even see on a layout. The same detail can make the model very fragile and at times difficult to keep on the track. i.e. the flanges now are very prototipical and the wheels much narrower than they used to be, but unless the track is absolutely perfect they wont stay on, which I find counterproductive. I just bought a Lima HO Dutch hondekop NS Mat54 4 car set electric train, which should be delivered in a couple of days... Looking forward to that..

Thanks for sharing, I agree the current focus on minute details and numbering is impressive. But honestly those features are more noticeable on an online photo where you can zoom in rather than the model itself. I do like that they can now add filigree things like luggage racks and foot steps. Enjoy your Lima hondekop, they are wonderful!
