Voted no, not "my Era" - even if it looks absolutely lovely and I am very tempted to get it. Have to keep some self-discipline but I congratulate all Era III-IV DB modelers... Get it if you can... |

I'm interested in de locomotive. It's era III en a steam locomotive. And I love the SSN BR 65 018.
Have to think about the coaches. Those are already populated with preiserlein, have LED lights and conducting couplers. The cab control car has full light functions. So the price is not too steep I think I already have Silberlinge with preiserlein and lights. Probably no shuttle service for that train on my lay-out.

I would not order this version but I agree with Mike that the version with boiler bands would be great! Peter.

It seems to me the poll is just asking if the price is acceptable or not. |

Too expensive for what it is, but the real killer is the roof vents, they are just ugly. Compare that to Mikes Fulgurex model, and his is much nicer.
If they did a version with the more discreet vents, I might be able to look past the price.

I like the models even though they are not Era II. I buy all Insider Loks and related sets because they usually represent the cutting edge in Märklin techno. The prices seem reasonable for what one gets. Sadly, this is a prototype that was never in my era. |

I think we just need to view this poll for what it is actually asking. Assuming that this is something that fits on your layout, are you interested and willing to pay this much for this train? The price is irrelevant if you have no interest in these models because of what you collect. |

I have almost all Märklin and mostly HO, although I do have a small number of Z gauge trains!
So many trains and so little time. |

I agree. I am not familiar with the prototype for this model but judging from those images Märklin's model looks more realistic than the vents on the Fulgurex model do. |

Early on I made the probably poor decision to collect what appealed to me regardless of a model's Era or country of origin. Self-discipline is definitely not my best feature. Now my collection is richer while my bank account is poorer and luckily it is far too late for me to ever go back. |

Goofy is certainly welcome to his negative views of Märklin products and free to not buy as many of their items as he wants. That leaves more of them for the rest of us to purchase. The part I don't get is why he feels the need to relentlessly post negative things about Märklin on a Märklin enthusiast website. Most of us come here to celebrate and discuss a favorite hobby not to argue with someone who does not share our love for these trains. |

Jim

Some people get pleasure from antagonising others. When done on the internet these people are usually called "trolls".
I have been trying to reason with Goofy (Anders) for the last few years, but it generally gets no-where. Generally I tend to ignore his comments, but sometimes I can't help myself and have to answer! |

Hello
I am interested in the loco, but not in the cars, they will be, probably, 30 cm long, and with the size they can't run in my layout, and the price is high. So I will try to buy only the loco BR 65, that is a very nice model.
Best regards |

Even though it is not my era, I have to admit I am tempted... Good value on the set and the loco is a beauty.
No vote on the poll, though. The two answer possibilities are not exactly exhaustive. My response would be: "No, unfortunately not my era of interest" |

As the poll is asking about the price I voted no. I do think it's a bit on the expensive side, even for an Insider model.
However this model would suit my layout perfectly. Tank engines, especially the larger ones like the Br65, are perfect for a small station like mine. If I can get one of these at a more reasonable price in the future I probably will go for it.

I can understand how this set is not right for some people and I like to see their posts which explain why. But to vote no on the price poll because you collect a different Era seems kind of messed up to me.
The question is "Is this train nice enough to justify the cost, yes or no". I think a separate poll on whether forum members will get this set and why would be very useful. Thinking about other forum member's decision points often helps to clarify my decision on models that I am not 100% sure on. |

Perhaps only the loco, not my era.....sometimes I lack of self discipline thought. |
 German trains era I-II and selected III, era depends on the mood, mostly Maerklin but i can be heretic if needed XD, heresy is no longer an issue.. LOL |

Already ordered 39650 today However, I will pass on the coach set, as I already have some Silberlinge from the first batch (43800, 43810, 43820). |

I am having double sticker shock on Märklin items at the moment. Their prices have indeed increased, and in some cases by quite a bit. In the past the big North American online dealers had decent discounts, which I assume might be due to them not paying the VAT. When I buy from someone like MSL they take the VAT off and the price goes down nicely. But in the last few months NA dealers have started to list prices just 3-4% below the Märklin retail price, which is an additional and even larger increase for me. Maybe Märklin has forced them to end their larger discounts and get more in line with European dealers. Between the two changes I have seen my prices go up considerably though, enough to make me weigh my decisions more carefully about what to buy. Of course if I wait too long the models are already sold out these days and then I save a whole lot of money. |

Jim

I voted yes in this poll because ..... yes, it is an interesting model, and it is a desirable model for many reasons .... and I do NOT believe the price is too high.
Whether I order it or not (for whatever reason ....) is another question, which this poll did not ask.

marklin-users.net do support two rail with DCC and mfx too. Märklin support same way. I have seen and read even bad comments from other member here too about Märklin products. There is pro and cons. The worse con made of Märklin are mfx decoder. I do really like theirs locomotives but not their mfx decoder. I hope Märklin this time fix the problem about jerk at the start and when locomotive stop jerk too in this model of the BR65. |

i am interested in BR65 and the wagons set but i don't need figures. i searched the data of production on Marklin website and found 43800, 43810 and 43820 were alike to 41275 set specifically designed to go with BR65.
Perhaps i would consider to buy the coaches separately.

Hi
I voted yes because it is a very interesting loco (although not the most elegant). It is a Fleischmann grand classic . The coaches on the other hand are less; been around for some time, I have one set already and 300 Euros is very expensive I think.
Nive idea this vote Cheers

No, the Märklin one will be taken apart, the screws will be damaged and the wires messed with; and then it will be taken back to the dealer and a refund demanded with a strange excuse. One of my favorite dealers can tell a lot of stories about this. Per. |
