Texture of german locomotives

First of all - i love this sim - thank your very much.

Second of all - i know it's mainly a flight sim.

 

The attached image shows a type 55 (pruissian G8.1) with the logo "DB" (Deutsche Bundesbahn - 1949-1993) which is historically incorrect.

In WW2 time they belonged to the "Deutsche Reichsbahn" and usually carried the "Pleitegeier" emblem (Eagle with swastika).

 

It's a small detail of a very detailed sim - not important but nice to get fiexd ?

Wow. Such a tiny detail - but a great spot :good:. It would have to be replaced with the eagle and 'fake' swastika though. Something for someone in the dev team to do on a slack afternoon... :blink:;).

dunno ... but zooming in it does look more like "DR", not DB. Which would be correct for Deutsche Reichsbahn.

You can‘t put the „DB“ Logo on a train that actually moves. Totally unbelievable and ruins the immersion.

Yes.

 

No Nocke it's the "DB" emblem called "the cookie". Today 55 3354 is located in railway museum Bochum-Dahlhausen.

But its not far from Erlangen to Nürnberg where the "DB"-museum is located - u will see it there.

Interesting but honestly as long as youre not flying a U2 next to it it's hard to be bothered by the absent eagle.

Okay

I was. But I infer from your question that you are not a frequent customer of the Deutsche Bahn AG. ;)

 

It was really a joke and we can leave it as such.

I know this is a very old thread, but this skin would fix that pretty rough and obvious rework of the DB logo without using a haken, now if I could only work out how to get the sim to replace the default skin file(s) with my new one, like you can with player skins.

As you can see the diesellok Kö 0258 of the former Deutsche Reichsbahn (DRG) in the inserted images has a DR in the middle of ring.
