Just when you think you will never see a Faller Playtrain again, I stumbled upon Faller mini Playtrain set 3502. Still in it's original box, and the tiny pieces were never attached to the passenger wagon. Although the box was bleached at one site by the sun, the train was still in perfect condition. The wheels show obviously that never somebody played with this train. Unbelievable, considering that Faller Playtrain is 30 years out of production. Now comes the difficult part to search 0-gauge rails.

Now that's pretty cool!  Very late Georgian / early Victorian!

I take it it is unpowered?  (you just push it around on the track?)

It did not come with any track?

Did it come with figures?

The set in unpowered, and without rails. A powered version was made by Faller, but that locomotive was red/green.

These gallery trains would look great as a narrow gauge train in our western logging town. Great find on the antique set.
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:
