This once proud German toymaker, without doubt the most important in the world, has reached its 150th Anniversary, but just… Not much to celebrate, since they are currently working through bankruptcy… Damnit! The once proud factory buildings in Göppingen are all shuttered. The Märklin Museum has been gutted, with a bunch of the collection auctioned off. The only production still going on in Europe, is at their Györ, Hungary plant, with the rest being made in China..! Shame, shame, shame. There are hopes, that the erstwhile boss of Porsche, Wendelin Wiedeking has his feelers out, and that would be great, if he took it over. Hell, he has the cash, what with a pay-out of $136M, after the blood bath was over. So we reached deep into our own collection, and went back to all our sources in Germany that had hoarded original Märklin stuff, to offer it up here, in celebration of at least, our 20th Anniversary.
