Models of Vietnam Railways

[ozguy]

This forum and the photos have got me really interested. Being an Aussie I'm surprised by the former Queensland Railways DH class locomotives (still with the QR logo!) now D5H class I think. As QR is 3ft 6inch gauge rather than metre gauge, they must have been re-gauged somewhere. I have never seen any information in Australia about the sale.

I notice that there is a thread related to models but none are from VN. Does anyone in Vietnam model Vietnam Railways? And if so are there any websites etc?


BTW. I recently visited Vietnam, had a great time and saw a couple of trains. A photo of one is attached. I was on a tour heading for Ha Long Bay. I would like to go back and take a lot more.
