--- Z-scale --- A truly gorgeous "Orient Express" special steam passenger set by Marklin. What a beautiful set! It's absolutely stunning. This set by Marklin commemorates the historic European "Orient Express" train that ran from London to Istanbul. It includes a 4-6-2 steam locomotive and four beautifully detailed cars: a baggage car, Pullman car, dining car and sleeping car. All have really gorgeous gold trim and lots of detail. There are no flaws anywhere that I can find, except on the condition of the exterior box condition as shown. If you've been looking to own one of these sets, and don't mind the box, this is the one to grab -- the locomotive and cars are simply the best I've seen yet. The locomotive runs perfectly too. Enjoy! -- Perfect brand-new condition. Everything looks flawless. No marks anywhere -- Gorgeous paint with beautiful gold details -- 3-pole motor on locomotive -- Front lighting on locomotive -- In original box -- Please see my other auctions for more excellent items.

About my auctions: I'm happy to present gorgeous items in a comfortable, informative, fun auction format. My policies are straightforward: Whenever possible, I start everything at $1. Don't you get tired of all these auctions where the starting price is in hundreds of dollars? Where's the fun in that? Let's make it a real auction. Unless I'm selling an item on consignment for someone else (which is very rare...) I start everything at $1. Of course this is no reflection on what the item is worth -- I depend on the Ebay process to find the true value of each item. Sure, I might take a hit if no one looks at Ebay that week, but it would be your opportunity to find a bargain! I give you lots of close-up photos. Doesn't it drive you crazy when you're bidding hundreds of dollars on a locomotive, and all you have to go by is a grainy, distant photo? I take close-up pictures without fear or favor, from all angles, including wheels and both sides of everything. Yes, it costs me a few more cents to list and yes, it takes time, but it's what I would expect as a buyer. I test and inspect everything I sell. What purpose would it serve me if you got something that didn't run, or is damaged? I can't stand it when I buy something that doesn't work; why would I pollute the universe with more of the same?
