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.
Arnold :D

I just put a few Swiss francs on the hook - and already one has bitten
haha ;D

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,

Very nice Arnold!

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