Although nobody has said specifically, I think the "KW 10/2019" means the 10th week of 2019. If you look at the V5 LokSound they all say "KW 4/2019" or "KW 8/2019" and some have been delivered to Mfg and stores (Tony's Train Exchange is rumored to have stock).KW is a common German acronym for "Calendar (Kalenderwoche) Week". https://www.acronymfinder.com/Kalenderwoche-(German%3A-calendar-week)-(KW).html
That's great news, and I stand corrected! I remember enough high school German from 30+ years ago to ask for a beer, and that's about it.
Looks and sounds really good Chris, nice. Now you’ve inspired me to do one of these locos too but like you say the shell thinning is not for the faint hearted.Is it just the video or did I detect a little jerking at the low speed steps?I think these have a three pole motor so maybe an auto tune would help if indeed it is the loco.
@jdcolombo I took a quick measurement on an unmodified MP15 chassis, and the v5 LokSound decoder will fit like a glove without need for "tilting" the decoder. This is a very good sign. (Attachment Link)
