Joined: 19/09/2003(UTC) Posts: 17 Location: ,		I have just obtained a very old Marklin Locomotive a "TM 800" This is an early version of the BR 80 which is crying out to be restored. I desperately need a spare-part list and unfortunately cannot find one in the maerklin.de site. I am attaching two photos of this model for your perusal. Rather than putting in a new "Reversing Unit" I was thinking of putting in a suitable decoder - thus converting it to digital operation at the same time. Can you help? Thanks and regards.

He grew up in Germany after the war and is a great technician for Marklin. He is located in Wyoming - so take that into account !!

You can install a Profilok PD-101 to use your AC motor, it works well. See the topic "repaint an old loco" in painting and weathering, there you can see my experience with an old BR 23
