Recently Hobbytrade brought two Phønix-cars on the market.
I like these models very much and might buy them when I am in Denmark in a couple of weeks.
Years ago I achieved slightly similar cars form Roco. The also have two tanks, but these are completely round, instead of the somewhat foulded tanks on the Hobbytrade cars.
So I'm wondering: does these two slightly different cars exist in reality or are the cars from Roco not completely veraciously? ('sandt' in Danish?)

Hello Gert,
both models are correct. There were two types of Phønix-cars.
The Hobbytrade model is a former DSB Ucs, and the Roco-type were bought used in Holland.

Hi Ole,
Thanks for your quick reply!
The Roco cars are indeed very similar to our Dutch 'bollenwagens'.
