Märklin TV Episode 60

Märklin publishes new episodes of their “Märklin TV” series on a regular basis, with different topics related to H0, 1 gauge and LGB. This time, a complete episode is dedicated to the large G scale outdoor layout at the “Kurort Rathen” spa resort in Germany. Although the video is in German, it’s well worth the watch anyway.
