What are the item numbers?
Dear Mike here is the link reynaulds.com/pages/Marklin%20Orient%20Set.aspx the locomotive is now on SALE. We only have a few left in stock, so don't delay!!
@@ReynauldsEuroImports that's great but why can't you tell me what the item numbers are?
@@mikedulle1149 Why can't you read the number off of the box in the video?
@@jaym2381 obviously not or I wouldn't have asked.
The set Number is 42470 a set of 6 coaches
I don't want to sound like a nit picker but this is NOT the Orient Express. That was a train service ( Note a service not a train ) that ran from Paris to Istanbul. What Marklin has produced is the Edelweiss Express that ran from Amsterdam to Switzerland via Belgium and France. Whilst still a beautiful set and still Pullman coaches it was NEVER the Orient Express. Even Marklin does not promote this set as an Orient set.
I believe the "Edelweiss" Express was operated by the CIWL Orient Express company. All the coaches have the Orient Express CIWL emblems even the box has CIWL emblems. The locomotive class 214A was used on Orient Express Trains and the coaches have the CIWL logos so it was an Orient Express Company service.
