Anyone know of a good source for original Marx 027 tinplate locomotives, cars, track and accessories? I see a lot at York, but they are mostly in poor condition.

I would think York or Ebay would be your best bet. Then again, joining a Marx group (I believe their is at least one on Facebook), might be helpful.

These days, it is local shows or eBay. There used to be a lot seen at the Wheaton show in the Chicago area, but there were a lot of Marx collectors in that area, too.

Kinda depends on your location.....one guy with a lot of Marx sets up in that small building between the York Blue/Silver Halls and the big dealer hall....black, brown...?? Not sure. I did not see much at York other than his display this last October.
