I am really impressed, Mehmet.
Great event. I would never thought that a single locomotive could pull that many cars. |

Last night at 11.00 the trial started. By 4.00 am a single analog loco has proofed she can pull longer than 129 passenger cars.. So I can say 129 is in history now....  |

Hi mehmet,
If Märklin was in this summer's Olympics, you would win the Gold Medal.
Well done my friend.
