Nun ist auch der gesamte Advent wieder an uns vorbeigerauscht. Doch noch ist das Modellbahnjahr 2013 nicht ganz zu Ende. Wir feiern jetzt erst mal Weihnachten - auch im Maßstab 1:220. Als Bauvorschlag präsentieren wir Holger Späing Ihnen die Stille-Gedächtnis-Kapelle von Vollmer, eingebettet in eine Chefredakteur Schneelandschaft, die dem Umfeld des großen Vorbilds entspricht. Sicher ist sie ein Blickfang, der nicht nur auf der heimischen Anlage seine Berechtigung findet. Vielmehr eignet sich das winterliche Diorama auch als Dekorationsstück zur Weihnachtszeit. Dasselbe gilt für die beiden Winteranlagen von Markus Krell, die wir Ihnen im Anlagenportrait als Abschluss unseres Jahresschwerpunktthemas „Leseranlagen“ präsentieren. Pfarrer Krell hat in gelungener Weise persönliche Eindrücke eingefangen und wiedergegeben. Dazu gehören auch christliche Motive wie eine kleine Kapelle mit Gläubigen davor, die gemeinsam Weihnachtslieder anstimmen. Weihnachten bedeutet für Modellbahner traditionell auch Bescherungszeit: Gemeint sind damit aber nicht zwingend die Gaben der Lieben unter dem Weihnachtsbaum, sondern die Auslieferungen der verschiedenen Hersteller. Alles, was im November und Dezember in den Verkehr gebracht werden kann, verspricht guten Umsatz. Daher verwundert es nicht, dass wir heute gleich zwei Modelle vorstellen dürfen. So möchten wir Ihnen zeigen, dass Märklins „Blauer Enzian“ keine Farbvariante des früheren Henschel-Wegmann- Zuges ist.

  • European Train Names: a Historic Outline Christian Weyers

    European Train Names: a Historic Outline Christian Weyers

    ONOMÀSTICA BIBLIOTECA TÈCNICA DE POLÍTICA LINGÜÍSTICA European Train Names: a Historic Outline* Christian Weyers DOI: 10.2436/15.8040.01.201 Abstract This paper gives a first overview of the onomastic category of train names, searches to classify the corpus and reviews different stages of their productivity. Apart from geographical names (toponyms, choronyms, compass directions) generally indicating points of origin and destination of the trains in question, a considerable number of personal names have entered this category, of classical literary authors, musicians and scientists, but also of many fictional or non-fictional characters taken from literature or legendary traditions. In some cases also certain symbolic attributes of these persons and finally even heraldic figures have given their names to trains. In terms of their functionality, train names originally were an indicator of exclusiveness and high grade of travel quality, but they developed gradually, as they dispersed over the European continent, into a rather unspecific, generalized appellation, also for regional and local trains. After two periods of prosperity after 1950, the privatisation of railway companies starting in the 1990s had again a very positive effect on the category, as the number of named trains initially reached a new record in this decade. ***** The first train names appeared in England in the 1860s in addition to names for steam locomotives, and on two different levels. The Special Scotch Express between London King’s Cross and Edinburgh (inaugurated in 1862) was called by the public The Flying Scotsman from the 1870s, but it succeeded as the official name not before 1924. Also the names of the German diesel trainsets Der Fliegende Hamburger and Der Fliegende Kölner were colloquial name creations, as were the Train Bleu and the Settebello operated from 1922 and 1953 but officially named in 1947 and 1958, respectively.
