Tank Locomotive

Finely Detailed Heavyweight
Märklin is sending an impressive new piece of tooling for a wonderful locomotive out on the rails in the shape of the former Baden Vlc, now realized as the Era III version. This locomotive is produced in highly detailed, full metal construction and it provides a highly realistic sense of operation when you run it. This model will captivate you with the smoke generator synchronized to the wheels, the cylinder steam produced repeatedly in the process, the smoke exhaust at the smoke stack, and the steam whistle. The operating sounds are also synchronized with the wheels and they vary with the load. This is the highest level of craftsmanship for fans of Era III.

Prototype: German Federal Railroad (DB) class 75.4 10-11 steam tank locomotive. Former Baden VIc.
