An old models first steaming in a long time.
« on: June 29, 2019, 06:52:00 am »
Hi,

I have just finished cleaning up the second of my model engineering club's vintage model locomotives.  I don't know what make it is but I would guess German? 



I hope you enjoy.

Regards Tonyy.

Very nice Tony, good to see it still being fired up. Looks to be a Märklin (not sure of model number)

Once you got it running steady, it proved to be a regular rocket. Nice that these old models can still perform amazingly well after all these year.

Good job getting that one back on the mainline!
