Marcus Rooks

As a boy Marcus Rooks helped his father in his model workshop and thus the love of all things mechanical, particularly those connected with steam engines, was ingrained in him from an early age. initially this enthusiasm was directed to the construction of live steam locomotives and stationary engines. Latterly, however, toy steam engines and especially toy steam accessories have become increasingly moreimportant to him. Although he has been living and working abroad for many years, he has kept in close contact with the world of toyshop steam.
