Title: Märklin 4107/ 8 1/2
Post by: Nuvolari on February 25, 2020, 01:22:07 pm

Recently I receive a vertical Märklin 4107/ 8 1/2
It came with some missing parts but the boiler was in overal good condition.
I knew where to turn to to get the missing parts like the whistle and water gauge.
The engine was taken fully apart cleaned and reassembled.
Although I'm not a big fan of Märklin, I surprised how smooth and silent it runs.
I think that this is the most silent runner I have in the collection…
This is the final result:
