They nevertheless sold before the war British locomotive I will show you in the next future (LNER & LMS). Marklin also produced "US" versions of the R 700 and HR 700 which are extremely rare and very very expensive. They stopped producing those foreign versions with the war. Marklin stopped its toy production beetween 1942/43 and 1945 due to lack of metal which was only used for war purposes. I hope I answered your questions. Cheers. Jean-Pierre

The article is located here --> http://marklinstop.com/2...lin-during-world-war-ii/ Recently I found proof that 1943 was the last year Marklin made toys in WWII. This is a 270 A transformer made in the first quarter of 1943. Toy production began again in early 1945 with trains like the RS / SK 800 and the 34X / 35X series cars. Anyway, Marklin during WWII is an entire discussion in itself...in this post we are here just to admire Jean-Pierre's layout. . Hopefully this has answered your question. Best regards, Paul

Here are some pictures of the "wartime" items produced (at least in 00 scale). These particular flags are from 1942, the Mercedes car is probably from around 1938, and the coach modeled after the "Fuerher Train" is from 1938. All of these items were produced throughout the war and were stopped in 1945. It is difficult to say if they were actually "produced" during the war because many people say that production on these items stopped in 1940, however, I have examples from many different years in early 1940 and many of them were bought from the Marklin factory in around 1945. The 351 Fuerher cars in my collection were, for example, bought in 1938, 1942, and a few from 1945. Almost all of them were bought by people working in and around the Marklin factory during WWII. As far as I know, Marklin did not produce the Junkers JU 52 in a wartime scheme, but just had paper aircraft insignias which could be put on the plane. PM me if you'd like more info.

I discovered that Marklin also made the 8 wheel armered car and a tank that looked like a French Char B.I hope that Marklin produce some ww2 stuff later for wagon loads ect.I would like to see the fuerher train if you have a few more bits or even better any info on more aircraft they may have produced!! cheers Dan

Joined: 29/04/2010(UTC) Posts: 268 Location: France		Hello Since my old layout has been dismantled, I had to found another way to show you my Old Marklin Tin Plate collection. I will try to do so by organizing small scenes enlighting parts of this collection. I will start by a serie of items issued during the year 1935 & 1936 which are the first years of our favorite scale (00 and later HO). Today let's have a look on : - a steam engine R 700 RU - two coaches 327 K - one luggage coach 328 - a station 412 - two manual signal 440 and some vintage pieces of track I will comment. Two first global views : A photo showing the very nice signal 440 : A close view of a hand lever crossing without inside light : Another type of hand lever crossing : A photo of seldom piece of track 3600 AR (Anschlussgleis). Hope you will enjoy the photos...

You can see on the photos the following items : A steam engine R 700 The following cars : 363.1 1936 382.2 1936 389.1 1936 371.1 1936 372.G 1936 372.1 1936 Indeed, all the items shown were issued in 1936... The building is a small warehouse which I find very nice. It is the first item of this type produced by Marklin in this scale. It was issued bettween 1935 & 1936. You can also see two stop blocks 462 from the same period.

In the future pics, I will show you the different types of electric signals of this period. But electric signals weren't actionned by trains. You had to use a manual switch for that. The first signals which were really automatic were the 445G and 480G. Jean-Pierre

Joined: 29/04/2010(UTC) Posts: 268 Location: France		Good evening dear friends I would like to add some more photos to show you a few more older Marklin models. This time I will concentrate on more recent references as they were produced between 1939 and 1945. The items shown are : - a 418.3 station (1939-1942) also known as Friedrichshafen Bahnhof. - an electric locomotive RS 800.4 (1945-1946) - 3 coaches : * a 344.4 (1940-42 1945) * a sleeping car 343.5 (1940-42 1945) * a coach 341 SB (1940-1942 1945) with its two lights on the coach roof. I should have added a dinner car 342, but it was difficult to find more space for the photos. So You will have to wait a further presentation - and a seldom manual bell 438.H2 issued in 1939. I hope you will enjoy this trip in the past...

Joined: 03/04/2007(UTC) Posts: 1,605		Hello Jean-Pierre, Wonderful items, as always! You can notice on the roof on the RS 800 that the simulated "wiring" that is cast into the loco shell on top is not painted red/orange. This is common on many RS 800 locos from during wartime. This one was, therefore, most likely made during the 1940 - 1942 period or even late 1939 I have seen. I am not sure whether the frame is replica or original, but since it has glossy black paint instead of dull black, it is distinct from the 1945/1946 version. The 344 and 341 SB cars are late pre-war pieces because of the coloring of the roofs. The 343 is most likely from 1945, but the version from 1940-1942 is also very similar. One good way to tell if it is late pre-war or post-war is by looking at the roofs under UV lamp. Pre-war cars always had lacquer on the roofs, whereas Marklin did not bother with so much lacquer in immediate postwar years. Here you can see a reference image of the RS 800 that I acquired in an RS 841 K set from 1939. It was brought over during the war by an American who was in the Red Cross near Goppingen! Thanks for sharing the photos! Paul
