| Today appear the Scandlines ferries
Tycho Brahe and Aurora af Helsingborg.
Built as railway and car ferries they serve the route Helsingör - Helsingborg since 1992. The bridges of these both danish-swedish sisters are very different. Also compared to the previous ferries (until 1991) there are huge deviations: for example the ship's width had been more than doubled from 13,3 m to 28,2 m. For that reason the ships appear a little bit bulky, but otherwise they allow an extremly fast loading and unloading in 10 minutes. |

With Type 52 the first ro-ro-freighters were built:
The Hansa only with bow flap and the Wasa already with opportunity for bow and stern loading.
Under the first operator TEAMLINE they served the route Hamburg - Stockholm.
Subsequent operators (z.B. SEA MALTA) deployed them worldwide and also only with ramps for stern loading. These ships were built highly durable, so that they are in service even today after 50 years! |

To meet several demands I have produced a couple of models scale 1 : 400. The HADAG type ship 2000, which is by now a well-known detail of Hamburg Harbour, is released today in many different versions. Although I'll continue producing mainly in scale 1:1250 there will be started a new series HY-400 in my production line containing selected models in scale 1:400. As in the past I try to cover also in this partition a whole subject area. |
