Joined: 30/11/2011(UTC) Posts: 124 Location: Seattle area		Hi to all, I'm visiting the below cities and would be interested in thoughts on Märklin dealers. I've been to München many times and am familiar with Gleis11 and the (what seems to be former ) Karstadt store near Hbf; I read earlier here there's a Karstadt "replacement" store for Märklin above/below Gleis11's store; the website for this Märklin-Store even has the logo for Gleis11 on their website so I'm assuming they're related/cooperating. Any ideas you can post will be most welcome! A Coruña Amsterdam Barcelona Bilbao Buñol Cadiz Cartagena Lisboa München Portland/Weymouth Porto Roma Valencia Long shot: Malta!? Thank you & sincerely, Brian

I tried to go a few months ago but they were closed that day, the point being they are still in business. I just can't verify for recent amount of stock/worth the visit etc...

Joined: 19/10/2015(UTC) Posts: 26 Location: Tawa, Wellington		OOOOOOOHHHH!!!! I'll be following this thread with interest - I've just received an award at my work (Woolf Fisher Policing Awards) which includes 6 weeks 'special leave' and $25k NZD travel money. There is a work component expected but I would LOVE to base my trip around Europe (spec Germany) visiting MiniturWunderland (sp) and bringing home a suitcase of second hand 1980's locos/wagons. Any German based law enforcement members on the forum? Cheers Steve

Thank you & sincerely, Brian A good tip is to visit german train forum name stummiforum.de They have lot of members who use Märklin and they live various of the german cities which they can perhaps give some tips.

That was a while back, don't know if things have changed https://www.marklin-user...Train-shops-in-Barcelona And then there is a shop in Bologna whose name escapes me. I bought some AC Rivarossi there which is quite hard to find.

Joined: 26/07/2024(UTC) Posts: 25 Location: Gothenburg, Sweden		Hi Brian, You didn´t write when you´re coming over here. But if you´re coming after the 31 july. I´d want to recommend: Bentink Modelspoor M V C van der Bent Loseweg 39 7315 BB Apeldoorn (NL) Tel: 055 521 22 70 https://bentinkmodelspoor.nl/ Bentink is one of the leading MRR-stores in The Netherlands with several own special models available only at their store and also exquisitely weathered models. The store is in Apeldoorn about 55 miles from Amsterdam. You can easily reach this town by train and the shop is about 1.3 miles from the trainstation. https://www.ns.nl/en/jou...bledTransportModalities= Enjoy your stay in Europe! :) Edited by user 31 July 2024 08:51:40(UTC) \| Reason: Not specified

Joined: 30/11/2011(UTC) Posts: 124 Location: Seattle area		Thank you to all for your ideas and suggestions. I've used the Märklin Store Locator and it's somewhat helpful, but also not always accurate or up to date. It's a great starting point! I head over to Europe in early September and leave at the end of the month after all these visits, so I'm looking forward to exploring and finding all these suggestions. Thank you again. Brian
