Here is a new video !!
This is a model train produced by Fleischmann around 1944/45.
It's pretty rusted and the clockwork mechanism wasn't working .
Most of the parts are so thin that I couldn't do sandblasting... I decided to clean them using electrolytic pickling. It has removed the old painting and also the rust !!
Please watch till the end to see this antique locomotive in action !
By supporting the channel you help me make more of these video and find more amazing items.
I hope you'll enjoy this restoration.
Thanks a lot for watching !

This was great! Highlights for me are the fabrication of a new wheel and the "pickling" method to remove all of the old paint and rust. Given how damaged this toy was in the beginning, it is amazing that you managed to return it to like-new condition. Kudos!

Remember, after the war, Germany was divided into zones. The Russian zone became East Germany, and the three other zones, British, French, and American, became West Germany. Same thing with Berlin. So this was a wonderful thing to be made so soon after the end of the war.

Now, take a moment to think of the manufacturing of this little train....all of the individual components. Most, if not all of it was hand made. That's quite a lot of work for a clockwork toy, and probably took quite a lot of time when you add up the time for each part. The time and care you spent on it was well worth it. Nicely done.

I always find it very sad to see poor old toy trains that were stored poorly and ruined by rust, as well as badly broken parts... sometimes I will come across some like that, and try to save something, but it takes a good deal of effort to do so, and a lot of tools and equipment I don't yet have access to. I think the thing that I was most amazed by, was the way in which all the original wheels were saved- most people would simply replace a broken wheel, yet you had a technique which produced a very satisfying looking, and most importantly, functional, whole wheel! I imagine with not too much use the paint wears off and the color mismatch starts to show, but this is a very useful strategy for a case when a new wheel might not be possible to purchase or make. Sometimes when people say "this cannot be saved", the truth may actually be "this would require more effort, resources, and time then we could justify". For the joy of seeing something come back to life, though... maybe it's worth the extra effort!

First of all: A great restoration and a superb video! About the Toy: The Company that produced these Locomotives in the 1950s is called "Gebrüder Fleischmann" (as the video description tells). That's what the GFN stands for on the front of the Locomotive (Fleischmann brothers). The Toy was made in a town called Nürnberg (Nuremberg) and coincidentally this town was the Startpoint for the first railway in Germany on the 7. Dec. 1835 between Nürnberg and the town next to it, Fürth. But, as beautiful as the Locomotive and its tender setup is, its actually wrong! Fleischmann made two Train sets: - One with this Locomotive and two passenger wagons: Called "Uhrwerk-Eisenbahn" ("Clockwork Train" because of the winding mechanism) It never had a tender originally. The Loco has a coal bunker at the back of the drivers cab, like many shunting engines had at that time. - And another one with a larger Locomotive + tender and three wagons wich ran on 25 Volts Current: Called "Elektrische-Eisenbahn" ("Electric train" nothing to add to this! :P) But many german children did swap the tender like this and its better to be restored like this than tossed away! In conclusion: Great work bro!

Thank you very much for your comment and also for all these infos !! I didn’t know about the story of Fleischmann. I bought this train with this key and this tender. Here is a nice link 👉 www.tcawestern.org/fleischmann.htm Thanks again !!!

I have no idea of post war, West German railway practice, but why would a tank engine also have a tender? Very interesting that Fleischmann were required to stamp 'Made in US zone' on their toys. Did the British insist on stamping every VW beetle made in Wolfsburg 'Made in British zone'? Amazing transformation. Modern methods make a huge difference. Electrolytic rust removal, mini sand blasting, resin filling compounds and micro paint spraying probably make it look as good (or better) than when it left the factory, seventy odd years ago.

A great restoration - a wonderful survivor of the time. Must have bene an expensive toy when new. You have an eye for colour the black matt paint looks great. Amazing that the key survives!

Señores: más bien pudo haber sido fabricado en 1946, porque la fabrica Fleischmann, según algunos informes, fue dañada por los bombardeos que tuvo lugar en Nuremberg en 1945, sobre todo en el centro histórico. La rendición de Alemania fue en mayo de 1945, así que mientras se reparaba la fábrica y demás, bien pudo haber sido fabricado en 1946 y en la inscripción grabada en el metal, dice "Hecha en la Zona de Ocupación U.S." Muy interesante el rescate de este modelo histórico y gracias por darlo a conocer.

Si lo fabricó la firma Fleishmann no lo sé. Pero la llave para darle cuerda al modelo lleva el símbolo de MÄRKLIN.

@@santiagogonzalez8576 Don Santiago, sí, así como Ud. lo dice, la llave lleva el signo Marklin, pero en el filme se ven las iniciales en la cara posterior del tender, si mal no recuerdo, de "G.F.N" o sea: Hermanos Fleischmann de Nuremberg.
