Can anyone identify a Fleischmann model train locomotive? Question: I have a Fleischmann steam locomotive that is marked "made in U.S. Zone Germany" They started making HO scale in 1952 and the occupation ended in 1955. Does this mean it was made in those years? It is marked with # 1360 and 01 1952. Answer: That is actually one of the earliest Fleischmann models produced; It was introduced in 1952 and in continuous production fro a Number of years after that. It is possible models produced after 1955 still said :US zone" just due to old tooling, but by the late 50's every Fleischmann I've seem said "W. Germany" Don List owner VintageHO@yahoo groups.com |

(not included in set) I don't know if I need it or not, and if I don't, How do I get it running, in terms of electrifing the rails, to make it move? Immediate BEST answer vote to correct. Please don't say something random. Answer: You need what's called a transformer. Wiring the rails is simple, one wire per rail from the transformer posts to the tracks. Here's a link, just match the set number and order the transformer. http://www.rocousa.com/fleischmann.asp Model railroading lasts a lifetime. |
