Second Insider Model for 2026

At a grand ceremony in Kassel on February 10, 1965, the manufacturers Henschel and SSW presented the first of their new “showpieces” designed to haul high-speed trains at 200 km/h / 124 mph and officially handed over the machine to the German Federal Railroad (DB). During the 1965 Munich International Transport Exhibition (IVA) from June 25 to October 3, 1965, the locomotives, road numbers E 03 001, 002, and 004, attracted a lot of attention. The E 03 002 was the first of these three locomotives to be completed, and we are using it as our model. They took it in turns to haul special trains between the exhibition premises and Augsburg. On two sections of the line, these special trains reached the maximum speed of 200 km/h / 124 mph, which was permit ted by a special permit, for the first time in passenger rail traffic – an impressive milestone in German railroad history. Af ter the IVA, the class E 03’s high-speed runs were initially limited to test runs again. When used on scheduled services in front of TEE and long-distance express trains, the locomotives’ maximum speed was initially limited to 160 km/h / 99 mph.

Therefore, Märklin/Trix is dedicating the second Club model in 2026 to this historic class E 03. Road number E 03 002 with new tooling and accompanied by two “IVA” express train passenger car sets joins the portfolio of H0 models available exclusively to the Club. This means that the train composition used on these impressive high-speed journeys can now also be replicated in model form.
