Märklin Catalog Car for 1933
Through the History of Märklin Catalog Title Pages.
Quite a special painting adorns this car. The year 1933 was marked at Märklin by a large, even firm altering new items presentation. Our heraldic animal was born! The legendary, fabled class Ce 6/8 II SBB Crocodile as a miniature in fine sheet metal. Available at Märklin in 0 and 1 Gauges under the item numbers CCS 66/12920 and 12921, which still give collectors of historic sheet metal toys goose bumps.The only difference between reality and artistic realization: The Croc from Märklin at this time only came in a green paint scheme.In addition to the Crocodile, the Flying Hamburger was running and at that time was the Racer in the Märklin assortment. Across both units a class 01 express locomotive pulled a high quality express train with a sleeping and a dining car. The class 01, at Märklin at that time as HR 66/12920 was also in a green paint scheme, although in the prototype it admittedly never came in green.Due to the massive size of the painting we decided to divide it in half and depict it as a half per car side. In this way the many small details are shown much better to their advantage...
Prototype: Privately owned type Ibopqs refrigerator car with the title page of the Märklin catalog from 1933.
Model: The car has separately applied roof vents as well as separately applied ladders on the ends. Length over the buffers 13.4 cm / 5-1/4.DC wheelset E32376004.Trix Express wheelset E36660700.
