    I need help identifying this. I believe it is an early Marklin 1 Gauge. It’s been put away for a very long time. It was a late uncle’s. I know I’ve seen it run….long ago….but can’t remember much about it. I’d like any and all info possible on it.

    What is it exactly?
    Gauge,
    model number,
    age,
    how it works,
    what is it missing,
    what does it need to get it to run,
    value,
    Where to get the things it’s missing….etc.

    I thought he said it was a Marklin and it was from Germany. I believe he said it was pretty old and kind of valuable. I would really appreciate any info on it. Thank you all in advance!

      This is a beatifull locomotive, i believe this is a Pre War model Live Steam locomotive, Gauge 1, it should run with alcohol in the burner, but make sure you have it serviced before firing it, if you can please upload bigger pictures, does it have any number or reference? check this link with the info on the company, and they are also able to identify your model https://marklinstop.com/2012/12/marklin-fabrik-feiner-metallspielwaren-a-historical-review/
