Until now, I used in my I8 from KLEIN MODELLBAHN HO:

- SNCF rond modernes tampon, AMF87
- air-hoses 8293, WEINERT
- continuation of air-hoses out of 0,5mm brass-wire
- shunting-handrails with made flat-ends, WEINERT
- HANDMADE short & long handrails of the karoserie
- wood for wagon-floor,0,3mm thick, H0fine
- UIC-screw-couplers, WEIMANN
- UIC-steps, UDO BÖHNLEIN
- destination-boards, WEINERT
- 920mm wheelsets = 10,57mm in HO, WEIMANN
- 0,3mm rivets with 0,35mm-heads for the handrails, shunting-ones & UIC-steps

It also requires to complete the air-brake-system in the middle of the chassis with KE-system.

Also, some holes were covered by wood-putty.

Until now, connection of the distributor with air-reservoir and the air-hoses and completion of the brake-releasers connected in the moddle with the distributor:


It needs montage of the brake-cylinder, then connection of it with the distributor, for completion.
