AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A royal masterpiece in miniature is offered here.

The royal train of King Ludwig II of Bavaria, consisting of the Märklin 8870 steam locomotive and the exclusive Märklin 8770 five-piece brass passenger car set.

A rare combination that impressively brings together the grandeur of the Bavarian royal house and Märklin’s refined engineering.

A unique royal train

The Märklin 8870 is modeled after the legendary Bavarian Class S 3/6 steam locomotive of the Royal Bavarian State Railways.

This imposing locomotive is inspired by the historic steam locomotives that hauled King Ludwig II’s train. The Bavarian king is known worldwide for his fairytale castles, including the famous Schloss Neuschwanstein.

The locomotive is paired with the special Märklin 8770 passenger car set, consisting of five exclusive brass cars.

The 8770 was released in 1990 as a special one-off series.

The locomotive and cars are new and unused, and were taken out of their original packaging solely for the purpose of taking photographs. They have never been run on a model railway; the locomotive has been tested.
