## Description

From the manufacturer About Us Theodor Friedrich Wilhelm Märklin founded a company in 1859, which, in addition to all sorts of daily necessities, also artfully shaped doll kitchen accessories, miniature carriages and toy prams. People who once were allowed to experience the magic of a Märklin model train preserve this experience in mind. In the company's history, Märklin evolved from a small factory for tin toys to a producer of metal toys. Today, Märklin serves as all major track lengths of the model railway market. Our goal is always to provide our customers with solutions that are at the height of time. So today we can offer an assortment that allows enormously versatile gaming experiences, but where everything fits perfectly together even after years.
