The Märklin and Trix new items 2017 is a treat for the fans of the modern eras. From era IV to era VI with an emphasize on era VI. Being an era V fan myself I did not find that much that I desperately need, but I did find a few items.

It's official, the fall new items from Trix and Märklin for 2016. I was really looking forward to seeing what would be available this time. I was hoping for some interesting era V and VI stuff.

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.
