Wonderful photos of John's visit with you, Mehmet. He really looks to be enjoying himself a-lot. Great present he brought to you too. Are you in charge of the Istanbul Tourist agency? You should be! You have done a-lot to promote your lovely city. It was recently featured on an American TV show called "Missing" about an American woman CIA agent whose teenage son is kidnapped but then rescued in your city. It was party filmed on the beautiful Bosphorus where they filmed a boat chase. Best wishes, Peter

What a glorious time you had Mehmet! John heads up our Cape Town Marklin "club", and I have learnt so much from him these past few years!
looking forward to his return!
keep well, and thanks for the updates, Joe, Cape Town.
(also enjoyed the beautiful scenery in your city in the series "Missing"!......)

Hi Joe, We really had a great time...... ....and I must confess that John had no difficulty in dispatching the trains.... He was able to control the whole lay out as he had been using it for ages..... If I can find some time, our video will show everything in detail..... Greetings to Cape Town..... Cheers, mehmet |

Cheers, mehmet Thanks Mehmet! That would be fantastic. We think we may include Ankara next time Cologne is a fantastic city but I have only lived here for 2 years (after spending 15 years living in Britain) and originally I am actually from Malmo in Sweden  Let me know if you are up this way.....
