This listing is for a reproduction of the first H0 Gauge Crocodile prototype ever made by Märklin in the late 1930s. The frame and body are made of die-cast zinc. Both trucks are powered with jackshafts and side rods. The locomotive has a factory-installed mfx decoder, so that it can be used on present day layouts. The headlights change over with the direction of travel and it will work in analog operation. There are sprung pantographs without an electrical function. 

It is brand new in the original box, and was made and sold in 2024/2025.


Length over the buffers 21 cm (8-1/4 inches).

Originally, the model of the Crocodile in H0 was planned as early as 1936, and it was supposed to come out in the marketplace under item number CCS 700. However, it remained as a prototype. 

Märklin did not produce an H0 model of the Crocodile until 1947 (CCS 800 – later 3015).
