A lithographed embossed tinplate '''Railway Station building with signal bell''', [[Märklin]] '''2650'''. The station is 34 cm long, 22 cm wide and 31cm high, and is supposed to have been produced from 1902 to 1919.


This is a '''Märklin train station building with a signal bell''', produced as model number '''Z17''' ('''Kat. Nr 2650'''), from 1902 to 1919, with dimensions of 34 cm long, 22 cm wide and 31cm high.
Our example is unusual in that while it clearly shows stylised "early Märklin" German-style architecture, it (anomalously) has signage in English ... so it would have been produced as an export model for the British or American markets.


Our model is unusual in that it shows clearly German-style architecture but has English signs.

A lithographed embossed tinplate Railway Station building with signal bell, Märklin 2650. The station is 34 cm long, 22 cm wide and 31cm high, and is supposed to have been produced from 1902 to 1919.

Our example is unusual in that while it clearly shows stylised "early Märklin" German-style architecture, it (anomalously) has signage in English ... so it would have been produced as an export model for the British or American markets.
