MSI’s: Marklin 8600 car type

The first MSI using the Marklin 8600 car type is lettered for Carlberg, it was produced in 1977 with Koll’s #77001. The Koll’s catalog states the edition size as 800 which makes the number produced considerable, but this car is none the less rare and seldom offered for sale. The Carlsberg car is not depicted in this collection so a brief description of its appearance is in order, it varies from the regular production model 8608 in that it has red coloration filling in the five small details on the lower green stripe running under logo otherwise the cars are the same. This collection begins with a 1978 car lettered for Atlantik with Koll’s #78701 with edition size of 500.

*Special note: MSI – Kraft editions using the Marklin 8500 car type started in 1984 with the only two car set released in the series, this first set included KRAFT NUR GUTES VERDIENT DEN NAMEN KRAFT and KRAFT Tomaten-Ketchup. The Kraft – Marklin series included releases with the Marklin 8500 car type as well as the 8615 car type which can be viewed in the MSI 8615 category. The series was distinguished by the unique design of the packaging which included cardboard sleeve illustrated with differing views of the “Kraft Train”, a styrofoam block was included inside the sleeve that contained the freight car and track accessories. It was possible to assemble a small oval track with sidings after collecting all the Kraft releases. All the Kraft editions are considered quite rare and even more so with the original packaging, but they are occasionally available through German dealers.
