Came across this youtube video while surfing their channel. An eleven minute journey about how Märklin products are made, with examples of many locos and layouts to describe their construction methods.

I would think that the video is generated by AI, definitely the voice.

Does a fairly good attempt, especially with the presentation of the locos and layouts, a majority taken from the official Märklin channel and a real surprise our club layout (in construction.....still) features at 0:18 and 1:51, and showing my blue Dutch electric - 37025, pulling a string of Kalk Hoppers (46242)

Granted, it does state that a lot of the videos were taken from other channels that did not have copyright.

A very glowing video which some members of this august forum will either agree fully or think that it is a lot of bull dust.

Have look and decide yourself whether it is factual or just a big love fest.

Enjoy

Hi
Thank you for this great video.
Not a trace of AI in it: real speaker, real movies, no enhancement.
Most of the content is Märklin but over quite a long period of time (100 years+)
All the Märklin I have looks exactly like this
Cheers
Jean

The loco labelled "BR 184" looks like AI generated. Just like we see people with 6 fingers, 3 arms or 3 legs.
Regards
Tom
