Just created this group to find out if there are still Märklin fans in Panama. Back in the mid 1960s while living in Costa Rica my father started giving as christmas gifts M starter sets. My family moved to Panama in the early 1970s the train was packed for the move and later bought from a friend his train set. Everything was stored until 2020 that I moved to a new home with an extra room "My toy room", unpacked and obviously had to practically restore everything. To date I have been purchasing M tracks, locos and rolling stock, extending 5 fold my previous collection.

I am looking for local Märklinists to create a group and share our lifetime experiences.

Hola Manny,
Mucho gusto soy Ricardo Sandoval y vivo en la ciudad de Panamá. Mi papa tiene trenes marklin y después de varios años ha decidido armarlo nuevamente. Sus trenes pueden tener mas de 50 años y están en perfecto funcionamiento. Mi padre anda un poco atorado en cómo conectar varios circuitos de rieles entre sí. Ahora mismo funcionan como bucles independientes, pero me gustaría que los trenes pudieran parar, cambiar de línea y continuar en las otras vías.
Mi celular es xxxxxxx por si deseas conversar por WhatsApp. Saludos!
