Our market leader now has a new international website: http://www.maerklin.com ( also www märklin com ) not to be confused with http://www.marklin.com

It took me a little while to spot the difference. Got it eventually.

I am most unhappy about this. There is now no longer any need for me to badly translate from German into English. I might now really understand what I am buying! Totally unacceptable. John

Our market leader I was wondering just who was our 'leader' now I know :lol: Maybe I should swear an oath of allegiance? I am pleased to note that there is no UK branch of the 'party'. Tim

Gee, Tim, for someone who models the DDR you sound pretty unmutual. Remember, you never know who might be an Insider. RK

you never know who might be an Insider Should I worry about the knock on the door in the middle of the night? :shock:

Speaking of leaders, was Fred Gates related to Bill ?

nope, one has a lot of business sense, the other, well . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Hi Alan, Thanks very much for publishing this website and also the www.modelllbahnecke.de site. For someone trying to keep up with new or available items for the European market from the other side of the world, this information is invaluable. While I may be far enough away from the uniformed men who come knocking on doors at night, the down side is that modelling European (even to my ordinary standards) in my location, I am pretty much in isolation. So information like this is doubly helpful, and having access to a forum of like minded modellers has certainly revitalised my interest to a level above what it had previously been for a while. With appreciation, Richard
