17.6.2017 - Photo shoot

Sander brought two wagon-sets into the shop which I haven't been able to shoot earlier. Next to the 'Gaskesselwagen' Set (Trix 23915), he brought  the Märklin set 48808 with him, which odd enough I only shot the whole set still in the box (May 2006) but not separately. Still don't know why...

On invitation of a Dutch forum member I did an elaborate photo-shooting in Amsterdam this afternoon. He handed me some 50 more or less exceptional and unique Märklin models like locomotives, sets, coaches, museum cars and some metal cars.

25.2.2017

Pit stop at my dealer's where I shot the newly released DRG 58 1880 (Märklin 37587) and the 3^rd released Bavarian coach (Märklin 41369).

Since there was not much news, I made another shot of one of my favourite models ever: the Württ. C "Technologieschau 1990" in blank metal livery.

Märklin 3514B ~ Technologieschau (LE 1990)

Märklin 37587 (LE 2017)

Although a hybrid, I couldn't forsake this beautiful Class 16 005, which in effect is an Austrian Class 310. I added it to the Models List.

Roco 63310

16.2.2017

Although I did a photo shoot of the Märklin Orient Express Set (Märklin 26922) on December 31^st, I couldn't resist to shoot the very same cars in DC version (Trix 24793) for authenticity's sake, a couple of weeks later. This set contains coaches with with the same road numbers but lacks both a Baden IVh locomotive and a pick up shoe at the 1207-coach. Besides, this set consist only of 5 instead of 7 coaches. The other two coaches, released as Trix #24794, were not at hand at the moment.

Trix 24793

12.2.2017

Today I found several pictures of the 2017 Micro Feinmechanik new releases in my mailbox, kindly sent to me by mr. Andreas Mehrl.

11.2.2017

Today a small winter-stop at my dealers. One of the customers brought his DRG 39 105, since on January 4th, alas, the tender was 'derailed'.

Hence I did a remake today, and had an even better and smoother winter light. It gave the exquisite atmosphere I was looking for...

Fleischmann 4897 ~ "Borsig pur sang"

6.2.2017

Still continuing working on some pictures I took the 4th of January, here's a classic Roco model which was released no less than 33 years ago (1984):

the 01 112 with Wagner deflectors in Era 3 livery for the Deutsche Bundesbahn (DB).

I 'removed' the connecting casting between the two shields.

Roco 01449A

10.1.2017

Being at my uncle's, he had two new purchases.

Next to the Fleischmann 410374 (003 131-0) there was the 2016 release of Trix 22962 (DRG 96 021)

Trix 22962

The Badanian IV h Nr. 1010 on the Cochemer Bahn

4.1.2017

Today I did a small photo shoot of a collection from one of my dealer's customers, most Roco and Fleischmann steamers.

Since daylight was sparse in his attic and there was artificial light as well, the colouring is not as I wanted.

Nevertheless, some missing items are now being added to the Picture Book, f.i. Fleischmann's DRG 39 105 in Prussian livery.

Or this DRG 93 357, a 1987 Roco limited edition with the 33 years old BR 57 3088 (43220 viz. 4116A, still with blank wheels).

And now the DRG 13 1189 (Fleischmann 4113) in a bright and clear shot. Or the 'antique' Class 78 134 (Liliput 7803).

1.1.2017

Yesterday I made the last 2016 photo shoot at my dealers.

Next to the top notch BADEN IVh Nr. 1010 (Märklin #26922), many more models, new and old, where before my camera.

Märklin 37685 (N 2016)

Booklets (Märklin 37685) in special folder... that's a first time for me, seeing this.

The ET 194 (former LAG 895, Güter- und Gepäcktriebwagen )...

Märklin 34831 (LE 1997)

... must have been in mind for this MHI fantasy model:

Märklin 39531 (N 2016)

A true exotic locomotive with marvellous printing on the Class 182 (Märklin 39845):

The NS 1652 and NS 2200 in its original brown livery.

 Not directly in my line, but good lookin' as well...

Märklin 29256 (starter set)
