Requesting modelling info on these:
Permalink   

Hello again to all. I am now putting out felers on the subject of modeling three little known items of equipment that were widely used in the German Army of WWI;

The Grossesflammenwerfer Static Flamethrower emplacement, and the FIeld Electrical power generator used by the pioneers, and finally Delousing wagens. Any clear pics  sketches or plans of any of the above? any info is welcome and useful.

Thanks again guys.

Josh

Thats very helpful, so the Grof was actually quite simple, thats good. but what type of the delousing wagons did the Germans use?

Anybody got anything interesting on field electric power generators?

Greetings, Josh

any takers? well, courtesy of Jack Mueller, here is what I know; The Generators are Siemens Built and gasoline powered.
that's all I know. never seen a pic of it in my life.

On delousng wagons, would the German Model have been similar to the second one shown in the posted thread?

Greetings, Josh

Hello,

Found on a German site (contents smells a bit "Pro 3th Reich" I think)

That's Great! so are they steam powered then? or are there different manufactures?
All in all that wouldn't be hard to model (I think). Anyone ever see anything on the electric generators used by the army?

Greetings, Josh

Not very much but anyway:

It is a portable Siemens & Halske generator 1913-1918, used (probably) to generate electricity for Wireless

Took me long enough. After many long nights at work I finally had time to sit and read the page you posted Paul, (Yes I do read German By the way). Most interesting. But one more question,In regards to perhaps simplifying the delousing wagen project, would the Germans have used horse drawn vehicles similar to the french? or were they as tankcommander posted?

P.S Anyone ever read how they operate?

Greetings, Josh
