Magnificent and rare Marklin train station produced purely for the American market circa 1910-1912. The station base is dark green with a dark gray roof with diagonal stripping. This two story station meant for one gauge sets shows wonderful detail, featuring a bay window with telegraph office and ticket office, lettered “Paterson” above the door.
