Last week I did some cleaning of our rented storage room. I found some of my old Märklin there and thought I would bring it back to the train room. I bought these models back in 1994 when I was on a student exchange in Stuttgart. It was a great day when I took my hard earned pocket money to the train store and got the one model that I have always wanted: The classic German rail bus.

For more than 50 years the class MY has played a big part in the Danish railway history as well as the history of other European railways. To commemorate the 50 year anniversary of the class MY, Trix released a completely newly tooled H0 model of the locomotive. To my knowledge this is the first time the Nohab is available as a Trix model in H0. This is my review of a model that is both heavy, good looking and runs like charm.

If you are a regular follower of the blog, you will have seen pictures from my modular layout. Both the C track articles and some of the landscaping articles feature stuff from the construction of the layout. Here are some pictures from the layout as it currently looks.

I like to build, rebuild, break down, set up, build again, and again and rebuild and so it goes. In other words: I need a track system that is easy to use and easy to set up and take down. The Trix C track stands out when it comes to track systems with built-in track bed. The Trix C track is a derivative of the Märklin C tack, but without the center rail. Trix C track is built for 2-rail operation and comes complete with support for RP25 wheel sets and powered frogs.
Updated: I have added additional images of the turnouts.
