Hello Everybody.

Waiting for my Marklin 39250 Swiss Class C 5/6 "Elephant", my interest for Swiss steamers gets bigger and bigger. Searching on Google, the beautiful (IMHO) Class A 3/5 caught my eye. The question is, did Marklin ever produce a HO model of this steamer?

Regards

Paris

liliput has issued two different versions: one in the 600 series, the other in the 700, also in 3 rail/ digital
Very nice locos, not as sturdy as Märklin but definitely worth it if you like Swiss steamer.
Also don't forget the tank loco Eb 3/5 37131 and so on...Wink

I have the Liliput A 3/5. As I understand it early version of the model were note so good mechanically. I have a later version is while not up to marklin standards, its a lovely engine and runs well.

There is also the B 3/4 steam locomotive which liliput makes, but I've heard those have problems as well Cursing so I've held off on purchase.
