Was clearing out a house today when I came across this box of Marklin trains. Wanted to know if anyone here could shed some light on the value of the lot as a whole or individual pieces. The engine looks to have all of the gears but looks like the braking system has been repaired with a wire. Will take more pics if needed. Thank you so much for any info you could provide!

Hello,

It's a Marklin Gauge 1 clockwork train produced in the early 1900s (probably around 1905-1910). Here's a similar loco on eBay as an example:

Looks like you also have 10 000 K car which I believe is a baggage car, a tipping / gravel car, and a passenger car (red).

The value as a lot might be in the range of $400 - $600, but it's difficult to say. Lately items in top condition are prized and poor condition have little value - the gap is widening and collectors demand the top quality. This would be a great set for somebody who enjoys restoration.
