I will tell you the best I have found for Marx parts is Robert Grossman.  He is honest as any dealer I have known.

Marx did produce HO models for a few years starting in the late 50's, but Marx 3-rail O gauge is much more widely known.  the first link above to the Robert Grossman Company should provide all your parts needs.  for any specific repair information, you might also try to consult the Yahoo Marxtrain group.  a wealth of detailed knowledge resides there.  cheers...gary

There was one thing I forgot to mention that the Marx train that I have is o gauge I dont know much about any othe gauges that Marx manufacture so it may be stating the obvious,

First I would like to say hello to all members of this forum I have just joined and am in great need of you help.

I have a Marx Tin Plate Electric Baltimore & Ohio Diesel Train - Caboose- Dummy Engine and am in need of the following spares

One Pair of Nylon Gear Wheels which go between the Driving Wheels and mesh to the driving gear wheel from the motor The teeth on mine are stripped.

One plastic horn which fits to the top of the train

One plastic coupling.

If I have put this request in the wrong place I appologise but if any member can help me or give me a link to where I can purchase the parts I require it would be most appreciated.

I live in England and am quite happy to pay for spares and the appropriate postage cost

Thank you

Digby
