I just finished part one of the BBC series, The Joy of Train Sets.

The one revealeing historical notation that I did not know was the Wenman Joseph Bassett-Lowke imported his model trains from Germany.

It's been more that a hundred years and German model trains are still being make and sought after worldwide.

Wonderful or should I say, Wunderbar!

My life is better with model trains, thanks Marklin!

Hi John. I will have to look out for that show here in the US, John. Sounds great and I agree with you. Antiques Roadshow had a Märklin

train set back in 2004. Did you see this? Peter Cool

Märklin is 157 years old... just by comparison.
