Maerklin Vertical - new on my shelf
« on: August 31, 2021, 02:03:06 pm »
Got a new Maerklin Vertical today - it is a M (Brass) Model.
There are some paint missing/damage on the platform and flywheel
but the engine is in a very good shape. I guess it is model
4122 Size 8 1/2 with the water pump and the nice burner.
I already made a steam test and it runs in both directions very
well. Now I have to move the others on the shelf closer together....
Enjoy, Arnold ;D

Hello Arnold,

I knew it, that there is still space on your shelf!

Great machine. Great catch.

Congratulations!
Cheers

   Congrats, Arnold

   I don't think I've seen this variation before, the brass and the early style fire box door.
   
    What does it date to ?
Cheers Bob, I collect mostly German steam stationary engines.

Very nice Arnold , you certainly have (& find) some top "shelf" steam engines.
