Hello AlistairD,

This is a great Keyword. If i google for "Danske Dampskibe Caledonia" i got some hits.
It is a colored version of the Picture of Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Caledonia_-_first_Danish_steamship.jpg

The colored version is here:
http://www.leonhards-minder.dk/gallerier/b_caledonia_2.htm

Here the sides are yellow.
Also the hull looks a little bit green. Maybe verdigris of copper 

The Book of Eduard Büngden i have here (lend from our library)
On Page 143 there are only some little facts about the Caledonia.
Much less information than DJCF was able to find out.

So i have now new informations to go on on painting "My Caledonia".

Thanks a lot.

regards
Holger

Hey! While goggling around, i found a German Magazine that has in its actual issue
an article about the Caledonia:

***Journal Dampf Heissluft***

I immediately went to  the Train station (because they got a larger range of magazines)
an bought one. A very nice eight pages arcticle.
Now i'm trying to contact the author via the publishing house.
Maybe he can help in some detail questions 

Long time goes by, but now it is finished.

After the release of the Steam-Magazine, i contacted the publishing house.
They made a contact to the author and we was able to talk about the Caledonia
by telephone. That was very interresting.

After that i finished the construction, the coloration and tested if everything fits.

An now you can download it on our Homepage for free.

I have to say thank you to all of the writers here in this Thread. Without your
help it were not possible to realize that Model.
Of course I have given the Paddle Ducks Forum in the note of thanks of the description as a source.

That looks nice Holger....

Thankyou for sharing the plans with us! There is a lot of other models on your website that took my interest as well!

Regards
Eddy

Holder, if you look more at the picture gallery, there are about 8 other engineering drawings of the caledonia.

@ Eddy
Thank you for the praise and acclaim of our Modells.
It was natural to share the Modell - especially with the Paddleducks - because all their helpful hints.

@greateastern
Yes, i know them. There are a total of 10 drawings of the Caledonia on Imeche.
They was very helpful for the contruction.

Holger, sorry to "provide" information you already had. Somehow, I missed page 2 and didn't see that you had progressed so far.  Your finished model looks really fine, you have done a great job.

Never mind 
Thank you for the praise of the Model.

Many greetings from the River Rhine.
