283 - Märklin H0 diesel locomotive V200 060 and electric locomotive class 103 113-7, 3021 and 3054

Märklin H0 diesel locomotive V200 060 and electric locomotive class 103 113-7, 3021 and 3054 Two locomotives of gauge H0 by Märklin: 1) diesel locomotive V200 060 of the DB (art. 3021), in red-grey colouring, function tested and present; 2) electric locomotive class 103 113-7 of the DB (probably art. 3054) in TEE colouring, the electrics respond (light on, motor hums), the drive is seized due to the long period of standing (gummed up), servicing and cleaning required. Played-with condition appropriate to age. The absence of smaller, delicate add-on parts cannot be entirely ruled out. The track section shown serves only for presentation. The V200 was the first large diesel locomotive of the young Federal Railway and shaped the image of passenger traffic of the 1950s. Class 103 hauled the fast TEE and IC trains from the late 1960s. Both prototypes are among the classics of Märklin H0 model history. The running number V 200 060 is carried by the Märklin model 3021 in the versions from 1971 (Koll's Kompaktkatalog Märklin 00/H0, 1983, no. 3021, variants 9 and 10). Märklin listed class 103 from 1971 under article number 3054 with two rows of ventilation grilles and running number 103 113-7; on the present locomotive the DB emblem does not sit on a black raised plate as on the first version of 1971–1974, so it belongs to the versions of 1975–1981 (Koll's Kompaktkatalog Märklin 00/H0, 1983, no. 3054, variants 2–4).
