On the Internet I found out that Märklin has made a Württemberg C locomotive long before the H0 model appeared in 1988. It's a gauge 1 model of earlier days:

25.8.2018

Some new scale H0 items have arrived in the shop. This time I was asked to shoot two Gauge 0 steamers for selling them on eBay.

Since I am merely doing H0 Scale models, it was a pretty challenging job to have Gauge 0 models on my not too large display in a not too spacious environment...

But I guess it worked out quite fine.

I happened once again to read the story of the Cochemer Bahn written by Rogier Donker. It must have been rewritten during the years.

See for yourself a lovely tale by a fine writer's hand...

27.7.2018

Today I received a limited edition cargo van of the Prussian Railways (KPEV):

Märklin 48932

15.7.2018

Although Brassdepartment presented this model form Mr. Noll as a Prussian T 5, meant for the Main-Neckar-Bahn (NMB), in effect it's a Badenian Class VIa.

Courteously tipped by Alexander Nozadze.

22.6.2018

Working on my ModelsList, I discovered a "new" steamer: the Badenian class IVb. This model is offered by Schnabel and constructed by Mr. Noll.

Since the Bad. IVb was taken out of service long before the DRG number scheme was completed, this class fails in my ModelsList.

As a tank locomotive - type1'B1' - it would have been registered as Class 71. In Era 1 livery this Baden IVb carries road number 340 (Maffei 948/1875).

The pictures were taken by Brassdepartement.com (with a little doctoring by me).

21.6.2018

Very interesting...

13.6.2018

From Turkey, I reeceived a very kind letter considering the implementation of Teoman Kardaslar 's models on my website (see 29.5).

See Guestbook.

29.5.2018

Teoman Kardaslar from Turkey sent me some pictures of his TCDD Class 45002, derived from the Prusian G 8.2.

He made this model out of parts of Piko and Roco and asked me to share them on this site.

10.5.2018

Visiting Stadskanaal Railroad (Groningen, The Netherlands), I happened to shoot three German steamers, of which 52 8060-7 was "on the road". Both 52 8082 and 52 5933 - the latter in Russian livery - were waiting for repair in the shed. Class 50 3645-7 was "all rusty" outdoors, without her cabin.

With the DRG 42 506 - a true "Kriegsdampflokomotive" in mind, I had the idea of shooting all three released viz. planned WW II socalled 'war locomotives' together.

If we disregard Class 534.0 as KDL 2 for the Böhmische-Märische-Bahnen, this means:

KDL 1 = Baureihe 52

KDL 2 = Baureihe 42

KDL 3 = Baureihe 53 (Mallet)

A small photoshoot at my dealer's brought me...

... which, by the way, reminds me of my 2nd 'big' locomotive that I bought in the 1980's:

A small visit at my dealers with some gems in front of the camera:

* The Baureihe 18.5 with - exceptionally and only for the 18 505 - an Einheits-tender from Class 45...

* After 12 years a better shot of the "Steiff" car (Märklin 48806)...

* From an heritage I discovered the Märklin Museum Wagon 1987, now with correct printing Hennigsdorf (without the redundant 'n') in stead of Henningsdorf;

together with the 'African Safari' set and fsteamer based on Märklin's 3087 viz. 3090:

Due to some research I found a model of the Prussian S 7 Bauart Grafenstaden (1904/1905) made by Model Loco and/or DRG Model .

Since this type was not taken into the 1923 DRG ranking, it lacks in my list. However, nice enough to show it just here...
