It is described as a Swiss Sonderserie and may only be available through Maerklin CH. In previous years, similar items (37362, 37342, etc) eventually were released in other markets as well.

The photos show the same coaches as from the 28505 Set. Suter does state that the coaches will come with the current livery with red doors. The Re 420 LION consists are normally composed of 5-7 of these double deck coaches with a Re 420 in the new livery at either end. It would be nice if Maerklin would also release a coach in first/second class markings so that the set would be prototypical. There may be more information soon at www.maerklin.ch Regards Mike C

The Fleischmann ones are a little hard to find, especially the updated models with the red doors. I understand that the models have been discontinued and that Hag may have bought the right to continue to produce these models as part of their catalog. Tillig has released several of these coaches in exact 1/87. Sets with the pilot coach are due this year as well. Regards Mike C

It is reported that the Set is sold out at factory, which means that all sets have been delivered to dealers. It is very likely that a number of dealers will have available units for sale. You can try: Suter-Meggen.ch, Zueri-tech.ch, Roundhouse.ch, Bahnorama.ch or any Maerklin dealer listed on Stefan Unholz's shop list: http://homepage.hispeed.ch/unholz/page3/shops.html Good hunting Mike C
