Latest News:
22.1.2018 I added some new video's on my YouTube channel. The Baden IVh Nr. 1010 is the latest! Click here and enjoy.
4.12.2017 While shooting the large collection, the Badanian VIc had arrived. It is to be expected that in due time this model will be released in Era 1 livery, most likely as Märklin 39751.
Märklin 39753
4.12.2017 Today I had a major - and I mean: MAJOR! - photo shooting (2,94 GB a.k.a. 884 shots). Since a customer passed away some weeks ago, his widow wanted my dealer to trade her late husband's Märklin Collection for selling at the shop. It took me 4.5 hours to only shoot items that are still missing in my digital picture book.
Boy, how astonished I was discovering items from the 1990's that have never ever left the box (today was a first!) or were tenderly taken care of through all these years. Brand and brand new after 30 years! It's like a time capsule to me. It really made my day!
It seems that the whole collection consist of over 5000 items! In the next weeks more items will come to the shop. I couldn't resist in shooting some items that were not in my line, f.i. this limited edition of the "Storchenbein" from 1999, a metal wind-up steam loco in Spur 1, or the Museum Wagons 5802 (1988) and 85802 (1989).

22.11.2017 Two new arrivals in my collection today: Brawa 49706 and 49707. This time I ordered per Internet at Modellbahnshop Lippe, since these models (Messe Modelle) are not available via the regular route and they belong to a set of 10 cars, themed "Lokomotivtechnik-Geschichte". They were to be released for dealers at the Nürnberg Fair only. Lucky me...

18.11.2017 On my way to a reunion of my graduation class (1982), I had another moment of nostalgia while doing a small photo shoot at my dealers. He had a customer's Minex 3400 in the shop which he wanted me to shoot. These rare models from Märklin used as Schmalspurlokomotive in scale 0e but running on H0 track - were famously used in the Efteling Diorama (Kaatsheuvel), created by Anton Pieck in 1971. These trains, running calm and smoothly in front of the viewer, made a lasting imprint on my youth. I recall 1971 - I was 8 years old at the time - that each of us received this Anton Pieck reproduction of the Diorama at the exit:
Now, alas, the Diorama has changed over the years, that is to say: since the contract with Märklin stopped and Efteling ran out of spare parts, they decided not to invest in the Diorama anymore for many years. However, recently the Diorama was uplifted, but not as refined as the past showed. Magic Trains are now running in TGV-speed through the layout, where Fleischmann tracks are fixed with bold screws. Here goes the magic...
The Diorama in 2006, still with a Minex steamer at the platform, although running idle...
The same spot in 2014, where no trains were running at all.
Nevertheless, I got this Minex 3400 in front of my camera and it recalled great moments of the past.

Furthermore, Sander brought two Era 1 Bavarian coaches that were missing in my list:

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...

25.2.2017 Pit stop at my dealer's where I shot the newly released DRG 58 1880 (Märklin 37587) and the 3rd 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.

16.2.2017 Although I did a photo shoot of the Märklin Orient Express Set (Märklin 26922) on December 31st, 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)

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...
