Märklin 3005 Br23 from 1962 Happy 60th Birthday !

Happy New Year Everybody ! I wish you all the best !
For me it is also time to celebrate the 60th anniversary of my Märklin 3005 Br23 014 manufactured in1962.
Running of course in analog mode, pulling 3 Märklin 4037 tin plate coaches...
And still looking good !

One of the most beautiful of all Märklin model locomotives, actually looking better than its prototype with direct lighting and smokebox extending over the pilot!

Thank you for liking and for your kind comment 👍 ! I agree with you, this is a beautiful model, running so well after all these years.

@@2mes2mains No problem ! Mine doesnt have tracks, but i like to just keep it there in decoration. (EDIT) : Its the only train replica i have. But im still proud to have it. ------ The problem with train modelism, is that it is a costy habbit. :(

Beautiful locomotive, smooth run, Hppy New Year!

[@2mes2mains]

Thank you ! It’s amazing how these old models can run so well after all these years ! Happy New Year my friend !

[@abcando1]

An awesome Marklin train running on your equally awesone layout. Love the brick work on the structures which look great with the train run bys. 👍

[@2mes2mains]

Thank you so much for your interest in my hobby work 👍. It is amazing how this old full metal train out of today’s modeling criteria can still create emotion … Well, seems I like the old stone walls 😀. This solution has worked great for me to create a scenic separator between the back double track line and the front one. These walls were also corresponding to what I wanted : a railway line starting in a big town in an almost underground situation, going trough suburbs in a trench, then reaching a country station.🚂

Wow, very beautiful vintage beauty 🤩😍 Happy New Year 🥳 🎉🍾🎆

[@2mes2mains]

Thank you so much ! Happy New Year 🎉 wish you all the best !

What a great video, you're getting better with every new one. Love the loco as well, I may get some more of the older analog locomotives & cars myself...

[@2mes2mains]

Thank you so much ! Glad to receive such a compliment ! Though it gives more pressure for the next video 😀. These old locomotives are running great on C-track . Just sometimes upon some crossings and some slim turnouts the pickup shoe needs more vertical room to climb over then creates small short-circuits with the loco metal body. The problem is solved by adding a thin piece of insulating tape on one or each top end of the pickup shoe.

[@tomsmaerklintrainlayout6742]

@@2mes2mains Thanks for the tip re the pick-up shoe. Since my analog track is only an oval with curved switches, I have not experienced this issue, but can imagine this happening over 3-way or crossover switches.
