Greetings

I have the HO Marklin Van Gogh loco as well as the MiniTrix version.

The MiniTrix version came with a loco card but the HO did not. For those of you with the HO version did yours come with a loco card?

Thanks !

Hi!

I don't have it, but I bet it came without loco card. I never heard of any mfx loco that came with a loco card.

I never heard of a Minitrix loco with mfx, so loco cards make sense for Minitrix as long as they still use D&H decoders for that gauge.

Hi Charles, we just received 'our' (the FD has claimed it) one today, no card in ours but not expecting one.

This is my first "brand-new direct from the dealer" mFX loco so I was not sure what to expect. I only have two other mfx locos so it's early days for me yet.

On a double-plus though, I also got 'my' pre-loved CS2 60214. So I am in for a bit of a learning curve on that over the coming weeks.

Sorry it's a bit blurry, Nadine is pointing to it saying "Mine" but the camera is my iPad and crap. Will try for a better one over weekend. She's a bit greedy, already has Harry Potter set, plus Starlight Express loco, I think I've started her on something.....

Mine 39864 do not have a card.

I use google search for minitrix version but did not see a card.

You mean the colour sleeve on box?

Thank you all for the responses - the comments about MfX locos not needing a card make sense - boy wish I thought of that. My dealer confirmed with Marklin no card for the HO one.

Cheers !

PS very cool looking locos - even the boxes are beautiful !

Cookee_NZ - congrats on the new pre-owned CS@ - they are pretty awesome - I also did not know what I was missing until lately when I tried the Main Station iPad app - WOW! Now i can be closeup to the trains and play with the features.
