Model knowledge

Model history

The three different freight wagon types give this set a distinctly modern theme. It is a useful starting point when contemporary freight operations are more appealing than a historic steam train.

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.
