Lovely .....

..... I still have a 1:87 scale Märklin version of this from the late 1950s/early 1960s :thumbup:

It too probably needs maintenance by now :).
I still have a cupboard full with all kinds of HO scale (1:87) Märklin locomotives and train sets.
Even a beautiful 125-year Anniversary Gauge I Crocodile (Spur I Krokodil).
Alas, nowadays they rarely see the light of day ... :cry:

Taughannock Falls, a 10 minute drive from my home up on the west shore of Cayuga Lake. GFX 50R with the 45/2.8.



Lower Taughannock Falls just above where it enters the lake. There were several fishermen in the creek that I cloned out, but left one for scale.

Another version of Lower Taughannock Falls without the fishermen (I cloned out 3 fishermen that were standing on and around the falls plus all of their gear that was lying on the shore next to the pool.). GFX 50R 45/2.8 at f/16, ISO 100, 1/6 sec. Click for full size image.

I am VERY ENVIOUS of your spur 1 :salute:

My rather large collection of spur HO live in a very big box :thumbdown:

My 4-6-2 (as in your photo) is far too deep down to find :facesmack:
so please excuse a poor 'snap' of my 2-10-0 not taken with a Fuji.



I can't remember what I did earlier this morning,
but I do remember getting the above locomotive from a shop called Franz Carl Weber in Lugano
in early 1957 :loco:.

^^ Great Ian! In model railroading I always liked the goods engines with smaller wheels as well as tank engines better, somehow they look more natural in a small environment then the big express engines. We had a 12 V direct current table with mainly Fleischman, Rivarossi and self built stuff (by my father). Most of what is left is also in boxes on the attic :facesmack:

Btw, in Europe a 2-10-0 is called 1E and a pacific 4-6-2 is called 2C1. The US counts wheels and over here they count axles.

Wow 1957 ! That's a long time back. And how did you end up in Lugano ?

I think I started in '66 with my first Märklin set.
Loved browsing the catalogs on end. And checking my piggy bank I found I was always short. No wonder with 25 cents (kwartje) a week pocket money ... :facesmack:
Perhaps we could start a separate thread for model trains ?

Brgds.
