For those of you struggling to upgrade your classic Marklin locomotives from analogue or Delta to full Digital, Here is an easy step by step video. The guy uses a non-Marklin loco, but the principle is the same...... Best Regards Ashley

I fail to see the humor in destroying a nice locomotive.. But then again, might just be me... |

I have to say, that was pretty damn funny as a video. I hate that the loco was sacrificed, but then again it ran afterwards! For sure I'd never do it though.
And let the bashing of my opinion begin.... |

My guess is he had two locos and the one we see running is not the one that was cut in half!
Maybe this guy had a serious problem with the loco and it was beyond repair. Still, I would have kept the body at least as a spare. |

Note the riders at the end of the video, one of which is repeated twice....... "If you actually follow my steps in this video you are a dumbass and deserve the end results"........ and "Please do not try this at home" (repeated twice) Cool video, good for a laugh!  Hey, it's an Atlas, who cares, right? Now, if it had been a Marklin.......

Pretty funny. I have no issue with it. How many cars do they wreck in TV and Movies? This is nothing compared to that.
Most of his other stuff is more intructional and less comedy.

Here's a video which IMHO is absolutely not funny (don't watch it unless you have strong nerves): Talk is in German, but IQ is below room temperature and nothing is worth translating ... OK, they didn't destroy a valuable loco either ... |
