Looking for some Marklin 73406 sliders for coaches. Gaugemaster of course have none. Anybody know of a UK shop that has some in stock. Thanks for any help.
Take care I like Marklin and will defend the worlds greatest model rail manufacturer.

I have more locos than the main dealer and agent for Marklin in the UK.

Hope things are getting better for you and your family.

I know he's in Italy (Bologna) but Flavio Dagostin does seem to have most stuff and is as quick as the post allows.

£3.64 plus £1.18 post

Shipping seems to be generally cheaper than Germany too.

It is a strange world where someone in the UK buys stuff made in Germany from someone in Italy...

You could try http://www.mount-tabor-models.co.uk/ who are the other dealer in the UK.

I don't think Model Masters in Somerset actively sell Marklin, but may be worth a phone call or email.

You would have thought Preiserlinge would have come up with an idea how to lighten up the carriage(s), I mean they have been able to uncouple carriages, drive locos, give the all clear green signal, take photos, work on farms,
so far my brother is concerned its in the air , received a video yesterday and he can scratch his head with his fingers, most probably wonders what it is all about. he is still paralyzed on 1 side but other than that I don't seem to get proper information about his health or sickness., most the time I've received personal information from family members but I don't know whether they have been relayed from a doctors point of view., he was released from the Covid19 section of the hospital and is now back in the general hospital ward and it looks like they've got rid of his lung infection but what life will be if he does recover is anybodies guess., he is not a person who takes doctors orders or recommendations and fails to recognize the seriousness if he doesn't take medicine the state he is in he suffers the consequences.

I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, will you be home for Christmas ?

John

Hi John. Looks like some better news and hopefully this will continue. We are just at home with dogs this year on our own. I have heart problems so dont get out much while the virus is on the go.

Plenty of Marklin time when Santa arrives

All best wishes to you and family and hope the New Year will be good for all of you.
