Wasn't there some controversy recently that the German government was still using one of Hitler's carriages as part of the chancellor’s train?

Hey, Andre,

I came across this site with a short film of Hitler's tour of Paris in 1940 which includes sveral shots of his train arriving at the station. Hope it's useful.

Here are some screenshots from the drama documentary "Killing Hitler" from the scenes dealing with the plans to attach the Feuhrerzug.

The program says the train is described as being "dirty violet or very dark blue in colour" and travelled "between 90 and 120 kph"

Hope they are useful.









Cheers,

FBerloff is absolutely correct: this transmitter can be seen on the picture of the radio room in Hitler's train.
