Hi Marklin friends

There's an O Gauge loco on eBay that already is at a fairly premium price. It's a mint HR 70 12920 with what looks to be the original box bottom - no top pictured. See the auction and photos here:

Although these are commonly repainted (especially the red striping), this one could be all-original. The box is stamped for 1936 and the black color of the loco although it's interesting that someone in pencil crossed out the 70 and wrote 66 for the earlier model.

Certainly looks original. There is some wear on the wheels (visible in second to last picture) but not excessive. Strange someone has marked the box 66 considering the lettering on the loco itself is 70.

Would be a nice buy for someone collecting the O gauge items, but only ships to Europe.
