I'm recently new to the Z gauge hobby and as part of my initial buying spree I purchased 3 Z scale laser cut models from Marklin.
They were actually part of a promotional package which gave a good discount on the normal price.
Whilst apparently rather expensive there is an amazing amount of detail and the quality is very high.

Well, to even my surprise I've quickly completed them (lock-down of course helped time wise).
I never saw myself as a model maker but I've really enjoyed the process.

So, my question is where do I get some more?

I've done the Large Coaling Station, Warehouse/Market and the Station. That seems to be it from Marklin though I see there is a new model appearing later this year.

I've looked at the Noch Z scale models that are also laser cut card but the detail and complexity isn't close to the Marklin ones.

Any ideas where I can source more kits for my new hobby?

Faller also have a range of Z scale kits.

See https://www.faller.de/gb/en/Serv...talogues-and-flyers.html for both the new items brochure and the full catalogue. If you get the german versions they will have RRP in Euros in them.

Hi. I have not purchased the models available from these sources, but they look varied and interesting.

https://www.mbz-modellbahnzubehoer.de/

This source also has a few building models, but I am not certain if they are laser cut. Worth a look.

I would like to add a few of these to my layout.

Best wishes

Dwight
