Model knowledge

Model history

A steam locomotive and two wagons keep the composition short and visually clear. The tarpaulin-covered low-side wagon and the advertising wagon provide different vehicle styles within one set.

The supplied track layout can be extended with Märklin sets 8190, 8191, 8192, 8193 and 8194, or with your own design. The included track-plan booklet provides a starting point for planning. Extension sets are sold separately.

These details describe the original model. The condition and contents of a Second-Hand example are stated separately in its offer.
