Class 53-0001 prototype that never made it into production. This huge "Mallet" locomotive with a 2-6-8-0 wheel configuration with a five-axle tender had been designed by the Borsig factory during WW-II for use by the German army on long-distance runs with heavy trains. Due to the events of the war it was never produced, however. Marklin created this impressive model with a total length of 12-1/2 inches in length.

DB class 18-473 "Pacific" steam locomotive with tender. Wheel configuration is 4-6-2. Formerly classified as S 3/6 of the Royal Bavarian State Railways, this locomotive was one of the most beautifully designed engine used to pull long distance express trains, among them the famous "Rheingold" at the (then) fast speed of 120 kph/75mph. This model has a high-performance motor that recognizes whether it is powered digitally or conventionally. Depending on mode of operation, the following functions can be activated:
There is a provision to install a smoke generator that can be turned on and off in Digital mode (not included in this offering). There is no box because this model was part of the Starter Set 29855. Instructions are included |

Electric | DB |
Class 118-034-8
electric for high speed passenger trains. This is one of the most highly
detailed Marklin locomotives, a model of the winner of the Gold award for
engineering and design at the 1939 World Fair. It was designed for the then
unheard-of speed of 180 kph (112 mph). It has been in regular service into
the 1980s and a few of these locomotives are used today to pull museum
trains, which would make them suitable even if your layout resembles the
year 2000+.

Motor Train |
Bavarian Zugspitz- bahn Garmisch |
Remember Garmisch? Two car motor train of the Bavarian Zugspitzbahn which runs from Garmisch up to Germany's highest mountain, the Zugspitze. Part of the line is regular track, and on the higher elevations the train runs mostly through tunnels and uses its cogwheel to climb up. This rare special edition model was made only in 1990 by Marklin under its Primex label. It has a tin-plate body and the overall appearance is very good with no dents or scratches, and it runs very well, but there is some minor damage in that a few insulators at the bottom of the pantographs are missing, which really is noticeable if you know they were there. Also, the headlights work only on one side and change from white to red with the direction. Overhead operation is possible. |

Track |
-- |
Several hundred of miscellaneous "M-track" (straights, curves 5100, short pieces, 80 different electric switches - regular, curved, double-slip, bumpers, uncouplers). Some of these items have been used on a landscaped
layout, and there may be differing amounts of paint or landscape material ranging
from none to all the way up on the side of the roadbed. I cleaned the surface of
the rails, but there may be some rust on their sides which gives them a nice
weathered look. Mechanically all items are in excellent working condition with no bends or nicks. Electrical and mechanical connectors are in perfect condition. The pictures give representative examples of the condition of the track.
