Joined: 01/03/2008(UTC) Posts: 2,881 Location: South Western France		Whatever the number of coaches (+/- 1) this is simply wonderful. First of all, you had a lot of fun with your friends, and that counts more than *any* records! I have always said this BR 44 was probably the best Märklin puller ever build, and your test proves it "abundantly"! BTW, I like the way you create large radius curves with the M-track "flex-rail" feature "Necessity is the mother of invention" (was it Robinson Crusoe?) I have however some news for you: two of my BR 44 have been converted to digital with 5 poles motors...and they pull even better than my analog ones! Cheers and thank you again for sharing the moment! (PS: I'll have to make the Istanbul run on the VSOE...one day!)

Please alow me make two things clear: I have always preferred the word 'trial' to 'record'. and I do not remember saying that analog engines pull better than digital ones. Cheers, mehmet ps: Please remember to find some room for your precious 5-star digital BR 44 beauties on the Orient...who knows we might give them a quick trial....
