Märklin is set to launch a line of AC/DC-branded model railway kits.
“AC/DC have had a massive influence on the world of music for decades,” said Florian Sieber, Managing Partner of Märklin.
“Their unmistakable heavy metal sound has inspired generations. We are now bringing this passion and energy to the rails. The highlight of the new collection is a locomotive inspired by the Black ICE World Tour 2008- 2010, where a larger-than-life version of this locomotive served as the stage backdrop.”
Märklin will debut the “Märklin meets AC/DC Rock’n’Roll Train” at the Intermodellbau trade show in Dortmund in April.
