Very nice books, Mehmet. They will be quite interesting for sure. Have you ever mentioned

to our friends at Märklin that they should produce a Turkish Lok? I think it would be great even though the

model train market is not so big there. Peter ThumpUp Smile

Hi Peter,

Indeed the book is very interesting....BigGrin I wish I were a bit older to catch the wonderful moments of those steamers.....Sad Sad

Mærklin and a Turkish Loco......this is my dream but it will never happen.....Sad Sad I must confess not only the market but also the number of people, who are interested in trains, is so little.....Cursing Cursing I need 12 people to do my next trial -pulling 350 wagons with one single loco. I can only find 8 or 9....Sad Sad Sometime I feel as if I am in a rain forest in middle of the Sahara Desert...ThumbDown ThumbDown Probably born in a wrong place....Sad

Cheers,

mehmet

Hey Mehmet & Peter,

When I look at the lovely pictures in the book, I see some german styled locos, maybe marklin is able to adapt a german model to those standards, I m not living in Turkey, but they look really cool, so people in other places, just like me would be interested too... So all hope isn t lost I guess :-).

@Mehmet: How about bringing some stamps along and coming by plane :lol::lol:
I really love the way the station is going along, very nice, especially the stories behind it. It also looks like the visit was very fun (y).
