I don't want to single out any of the machines. However, find it remarkable that you have such a well-preserved Doll steam turbine. These machines are very rare and then in such condition. Chapeau!

I agree with you, but I think the larger vertical plant (#8) would be the most fun to run!  8)

  Arnold, Thanks for the posts showing your new finds.

  I'd have to go with the 4159/7 and the gas motor a close second, then the hot air Marklin jumps out at me, it's simple but the base color really pops. But these are all very nice pieces.

All great pieces!

The Gas Motor, while a difficult choice for me, wins out in the end.
