I saw this on the MR Espress news flash - I say Daniel Ocean and Oceans's 11 are invovled. . .

Märklin Museum burglarized

On the evening of January 18, 2005, unknown persons broke into the Märklin Museum in Göppingen, Germany, and stole more than 100 historic trains and other models from the museum's collection. The stolen items, valued at more than $1 million, include O and no. 1 gauge trains and ship models produced prior to 1910.

Those items will never sell on eBay. I think someone at Marklin needs to submit the list of stolen items to Ebay Security.
