Remember, Lutz will defend everything from Marklin, so you're never going to convince him. (I think he must get a commission from M*) Just vote with your wallet. It's the best way! Ray

For avoiding further mistakes ...

Joined: 14/03/2005(UTC) Posts: 15,870 Location: Gibraltar, Europe		As you know, I mostly spend my money on good older Marklin. Having said that I did splash out on one SDS loco, the Br218, and I'm not unhappy with the performance. The sound is very distracting, though, and I usually run it with the sound off. I also have three of the new Hobby models, a Br185, a SBB Re482 and an OBB 2016. They are amazingly good value, though the reliability is an unknown quantity. Good metal bodies, though! Sorry to keep heading more and more off-topic! Ray

I am to send the VT08 to the Marklin repair facility at Walther's in Milwaukee. At least it doesn't have to cross the pond again. Looking forward to getting it back in service. It is really a great model and with the SDS upgrade it was running smooth and powerful. My 39980 Schienenbus is still going strong after it's upgrade!

The response: "There is not an upgrade program that has been announced, and there won’t be. The repairs of c-sine locomotives are handled on an individual basis. So far, I have received only two that were defective." Guess I'll try Jeff [}:)] Hal

I haven't experienced any problems with my VT08 - in fact it has run very well since arrival - and I have run it a lot (a favorite). But, I have not run it under the kind of conditions that seem to make the problem(s) evident. My plan is to double the size of my layout this winter - we'll see what happens

(emphasis added). This is being done very low key. Actually I was happy with the way it ran before, except for some minor speed variations. I figured for the cost of postage it could get better so I went ahead with it. When I got it back it ran great...smooth and powerful... at least until it died. [:(]

The following locos cannot yet be upgraded: 39440 BR 144 39582 BR 151 39680 BR E 18 And they cannot say when they will be upgraded. The BR 151 has the big c-sine. I presume this also applies to other mfx locos with big c-sine (BR 103, BR V 200). It also applies to variations of the BR E 18 (39681) etc.
