AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Set of three Märklin steam locomotives in H0 scale, 3-rail alternating current system.

Lot composed of :

• Märklin ref. 3031 – BR 81 004
• Märklin ref. 3000 – BR 89 005 (two lamps are missing)
• Märklin ref. 3029

Made in West Germany, marking “Made in Germany Western” visible under the chassis.



History

These locomotives come from my father's personal collection, born in 1942.
They were given to him during his childhood, when he was about 8 to 12 years old, i.e., in the early 1950s.

These are post-war Märklin models, kept in the family for over 70 years.

They have never left the family circle.



Specifications

Iconic Märklin models with robust metal construction, typical of productions from the 1950s–1960s.

Estimated production:
• BR 89 ref. 3000: model introduced in 1953
• BR 89 ref. 3029: late 1950s
• BR 81 ref. 3031: 1960s

Heavy metal frames
Complete wheel gear
Buffers present
Original paint
Patina and signs of use normal for age



Operation

The locomotives have not been tested due to lack of a transformer compatible with Märklin reversal.

The mechanisms appear free to rotate by hand.

They are sold as-is, with no warranty of operation.
