YES YES YES!!! Thank you Märklin  Some of us has been waiting, waiting and waiting for a miracle. Now it is here! A remake/update version of the EMD F7 in the nice, proud and classic, Armor Yellow UNION PACIFIC version. And a matching tinplate UP caboose + classic blue Märklin- retro-box is a perfect spot on to this item. Good Thinking! Has Märklin read our minds here? Now we can skip the outlook of old and real bad condition 3061/4061 items! High prizes of theeze has been a joke  Good work Märklin! And you must say, in concidre these F7-shells are 50 years old in construction, they are not so bad compared to more modern and newely made H0-modells locomotive-shells. |

My observations on the new items: - Only one loco I really want, the BR39 DRG. But the pricetag might keep me from buying it. The same thing happened with the BR45 from last year, I didnt get that one either. - The 3 car DRG freight set is nice, I will definately get that. - I like the black 03.10 streamline loco. Ray, I read you want only the red one, maybe we can arrange something ? On the other hand I already have 2 (a green and a red one) so that is actually already enough. - 5A on the CS2 at last. That was the biggest reason for NOT buying a CS2 before. I hope this will increase competition between CS, Ecos and other control station makers. Too bad they have to increase the price once again. - The Iphone app is nice. But why does it have to be paid for again? The CS2/Ipod is already pricy enough, why would you pay for a small piece of complementary SW? - I actually expected the old tooling BR23 again. I wonder whether the old stuff will keep on selling. I think the feelings of nostalgia has limitations. - Why on earth do they reissue the old Rheingold? I don't think this is a good idea. There are more then enough alternatives to get on ebay and they kind of promised it wouldnt come back. - A lot of big carsets. Trains seem to become very long, or at least M thinks they should be. My layout only supports trains of up to 4 carriages length. I can't run most of the new items . - I was expecting a cheaper BR24 or BR74 in DRG livery. I guess this will have to wait to next year. - Possibly I will get the NMBS series 28 as well. Totally not my era, but I like the prototype, and they are affordable too. Bert

My favorite 2011 train set from Marklin for the new year is, by far, the Wabash Blue Bird. Even though I much prefer buying models of European train sets from Marklin and buy American models from Lionel and MTH in O gauge, this one is extremely impressive and I will probably have to order one. For those that don't know much about the Wabash Blue Bird, Marklin looks like they have depicted nearly exactly as it was: http://wabashrhs.org/pics.htmlhttp://wabashrhs.org/images/bluebrd1.jpghttp://wabashrhs.org/images/bluebrd2.jpgI realize the Wabash locomotive in the above pics is not the Alco PA1 Marklin has in the set. However, I believe Wabash did own PA1 locomotives and run them on the Blue Bird route which went from Chicago to St. Louis. CONGRATULATIONS MARKLIN ON A JOB WELL-DONE...GREAT CHOICE FOR A MODEL

Certainties: 37581 "Gläserner Zug" -- YESSS!!!! , I just knew they'd do it in the red/cream colours  37676 DSB Nohab -- something to pull my other DSB passenger wagons 42816 DSB Passenger wagons -- add to my set Also, a must: 26490 Blue Bird -- FD said "ooh, pretty" so I take that as a yes...!!! Possibilities: 46350/46351/46982 -- I might be a heretic and just buy them without the loco... This whole set thing looks nice: 41462/3 steel sets 48294 Torpedo wagon + 37820 loco? Also, a long time desire: 37607 TEE Diesel Train ...perhaps A question: 36577 -- will the goods wagon/caboose/end "whatever" be made available seperately? I've already got the other four Donnerbüchse. |
Cheers,
Damon |

I don't know if the baggage car with control cab will be available separately. Four-axle control cars are available separately, so why not? OTOH they might try to increase their profits by releasing it in train sets/car sets only (at least in the near future). Sooner or later it will come in green. And probably in red variations, too. |

Very likely I'll order the following items:
37322: Re 6/6 "Stein am Rhein"
39565: Ce 6/8
47078: Container set SBB
48026: Cargo set SBB
Still not decided on the new CS. It seems like the longer I wait the better they get. |

Just had a look at the trix stuff, and placed a pre-order for the OBB jaffa orange loco and cars...I have been wanting to get some passenger Austrian trains and this is the perfect excuse...I can't imagine when I will see this on my layout, but I suspect sometime late in the year... |

Told you John  , you just pay that premium price just because there will be only 1999 (not 2000, another psycho game  ). I believe soon they will reproduce more aluminium wagons in other liveries. |

fyi ... for customers in the USA, my dealer has already received info from Walthers on the new 2011 items, over a month earlier than he got the info from Walthers last year. In addition he got Walthers pricing ... seems to be about 5% lower than the current pricing when comparing the 2010 TGV price vs the new 2011 Thalys. Maybe they are listening to US customer complaints ... or maybe Marklin has and has made Walthers do something about it ... we can only hope!!
And another point, did everyone know that the new 24360 C track is made up of the bases of the 24188 and 24172 connected together with long uninterrupted rails installed??

According to the German catalogue (page 134) only 999 sets will be produced. Which is the correct figure, 1999 or 999? |

Marius, the same question was asked earlier in either this thread or the 'Which 2011 items are you buying' thread. The Marklin online database says 1999, the catalogue 999 units. The feeling is that the database is correct, and that there is a typo in the catalogue.

Thanks a Lot Damon, I have avoided looking at the New List but I think the 37676 DSB No-hab and passenger wagons are definite for me PLUS maybe the Tee Diesel.

Still 'Price unknown' at present. Steven/All: If you go to the Maerklin.de website, you can look up new products using the Produkte/Produktdatabank. The MSRP (EURO) is listed for each item. http://www.maerklin.de/d.../suche/produktsuche.htmlDiscount dealer prices will be listed when those dealers determine their own prices. Regards Mike C

Everything I want appears to have a retail cost of 300 euros. Hopefully Lokshop will be cheaper.
