During the summer vacations it is extremely difficult to catch anything,
so I am happy that I got this original Märklin 4146/6. This is the smallest version - but just because very beautiful and delicate. I had to fix some things like missing handles, Vaporizer, phillips screws...
but finally I could make a first steam test - It works very well and nice.

Nice catch! What do you use for bait?

I just put a few Swiss francs on the hook - and already one has bitten
haha
Very nice, Arnold, congratulations!
Great catch. This one did not 'get away'.
You must have been casting your hook-n-bait in
the right 'fishing hole' to catch such a prize.
Kudos,

Looks good and runs well. Are you going to add a cylinder cover?

Yes, I did one right after the steam test - easy job,
