Still waiting, with no motor in sight yet. I have talked to Roland Baer and he has talked to Vessmann...no indication yet as to when it will be avaialble.

[}:)] More seriously, does someone have an idea how to do the same with K-Track elongated turnouts ? It seems to be imposible (?!) to do it with available turnouts and double slips. By the way, it should be great if Märklin could develop new rails and turnouts both in the C and K families ! Pierre.
