I don't know if it's still there but if you have DSL access go for it. Also, the demo version will be available on the Marklin catalog CD-ROM. The programs capabilities will be covered in a series of articles in Marklin Magazin International and you can also find a special Insider software forum.

Joined: 15/03/2003(UTC) Posts: 9,591 Location: Australia		Some months ago, I tried out this software for the entire trial.. I can't believe that I would have persisted with a German Language version - in fact I felt sure there was a menu setting that switched on English menus.. Unfortunately, once you have tried - you can never try again as it locks something on your PC.. I ended up with WinDigiPet - the only real complaint is that it has not kept up with the Marklin product range eg minimal support for the new signals - three aspects only...

Joined: 13/05/2002(UTC) Posts: 676		the ".de" was missing in your original posting. Never mind, we agree. Now that my impertinent question has been neither denied nor confirmed, let me just say in general that, if any of you happens to meet Mr Abbink , please tell him that his efforts to develop Mac OS X control software are greatly appreciated. In the past, I have sent several messages to the company to encourage them to continue their efforts, and I realise that the market won't be profitable, but the Mac community will be very, very greatful.

Joined: 04/11/2003(UTC) Posts: 262 Location: ,		Hello, Does anyone out there recommend using Marklin's 60512 train control software? I saw two articles n the Marklin International magazine, 5/2004, but do not see much mention of it on this site. Currently I use IB and marklin 6021 to control my trains, and turnouts. Thank you Craig

I'll have to consider some other train control software. Craig

Joined: 04/03/2007(UTC) Posts: 14 Location: New Ulm, MN		Funny, two years later and a person still cannot download a demo of Marklin 60512 - you can get to it by following Noel's link: Quote: [size=1" face="Verdana" id="quote]quote:Originally posted by Noel Loganathan Please download under: http://www.maerklin.de/service/?redirect=explo.php <http://www.maerklin.de/service/?redirect=explo.php> Click the botton "Download" on the right side at the top. I can download, even install, but when it goes to register I get the error "Cannot register c:\windows\system32\pdf.ocx". Yes, I even have Norton disabled, turned off, etc. I have searched the Windigital sitemap (http://www.abbinkserver.com/) and found a place to download 60512 service release 1. Again, no luck when it comes to installing. I realize this string is out of date, but I was shopping for software and noticed this. Wanted to save a few people the headache. Ciao!

Thank you - glad to be here. To be off topic for one second - it is great to have a (primarily) english place to read about Marklin. I have slowly built a collection over the last 6 years and have never sought this website out. I was getting worried I would need to learn German (at least more than dankeschoen). Again - glad to be here and thank you for the greetings!

I understood that the current Märklin track-planning software was a re-badged Wintrack Can anyone else confirm or correct this? BTW, this is an excellent forum -- just look at the meltdown currently happening on rec.models.railroad!
