So did Marx and Hafner.

Carey,

   Not my particular "Cup of Tea," but still they are striking models! Thanks for sharing.

What year did Hafner and Marx introduce their sets ?

Cheers Carey

I believe the Marx set came out in 1935. One of the first Marx train sets.

Very nice sets, enjoy them                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       Phil

The Greenberg book says 1934.

1934 would be the year both the M-10000 and the Burlington’s Zephyr were introduced at Chicago’s Century of Progress International Exposition.
