Peter, I noticed a tender (coal and water) car in a couple of scale model sets. In the link you provide there is a clear shot of this coal and water tender in the picture labeled Karl-Heinz Cramer (5th from last). Do you have a suggestion of what tender in trainz might be an appropriate substitute?

I don't know of any matching tender. The closest are the tenders called 'Wannentender' for the german BR 52, but they are missing the platform and the buffers on one side. They are built to fit to their locomotives, and won't look good with the rail crane. There are at least 2 dated tenders available at the DLS. Better looking tenders are available with some SLW steam locomotives.
The crane had an onboard storage for 1500 liters of water and 680kg of coal.

Ah, thanks for the hint. SLW's <kuid:167975:522132133> SLW BR 52 DRB RN v3 TENDER is fairly close although without the handrails, ladders, and buffers on the forward end. It does close the coal hatch when coupled which surprised me.
Edit: One of SLW's PKP Ty2 tenders is an even closer match. A little green paint...

As always, very good Wpsoft screenshots.
I have not forgotten about the van but the KPEV model does not seem to have passed to DRG. That's why I have a question, did the image mail car go to DB?
Finally, fruit express from Spain to Germany and Denmark changes its locomotive on the Belgian-German border:wave:

@Fant_autentico, your pictures were an everyday scene inAachen-West, where the freight trains were changing engine from DRG/DB to SNCB (Belgianrailways) on the way to Antwerpen over Montzen. Lovely vibes!
For the carriage, not sure DB took it over, or perhaps asutility or permanent way car. On the other hand, don’t forget that in the earlypost war years, everything with wheels that could hold on tracks was rolling. Andthis all over Europe, cause the situation was so terrible.
Now Javier , if you can manage this carriage in DRG version,I will surely propose you for Nobel price!

Very interesting information, Wpsoft. The idea of these screenshots is for a movie about 10 minutes from the Spanish national archive.
About the mail car, although unfinished, you can write to the Swedish academy .......:hehe::hehe:
Cheers, Javier
