I note from the Modellbahn Kramm homepage that Piko are also doing a G Scale version, which I suspect may preclude Marklin doing a G1 version.

Yes, Alan. This one is an ICE3. I hope they'll come out with the version you mentioned as well. Peter.

I don't know what that particular private company normally hauls - it might be a coal train.

Joined: 04/08/2018(UTC) Posts: 1,156		The BR 44 1315 Märklineum locomotive is probably close to release. Based on the decoder project, it will be no 39889 and otherwise similar to 39884 in the decoder configuration. But it has an extra sound function in f25 with the locomotive history. observed it was available as a decoder project for download in mDecoderTool3.

Clever deduction, always interesting to see what updates are available. I wouldn't be surprised that that will be the catalogue number, marklin do tend to use xxxx9 for special edition locos where there is a series of a loco. So first item for the Herbst New Items? (apart from the usuals of the Christmas wagons etc)

Not surprising since KM1 have also issued G1 container wagons, and they have a G1 Vectron on the way next year, which I have pre-ordered at a cheaper price than the Marklin BR147.

That is promising in terms of sound quality.

For me sound functions are usually in excess and this 844 has the dynamic smoke that's a feature I really value! I am very positive about the 844! Regards, Miguel

Dynamic Smoke is a neat feature, the reason the smoke comes out of the bottom of the cylinders is because there are some fans in behind that blow the smoke around. In my KM1 1 Gauge BR01 the fans are installed in the actual smoke unit. Given how small the 1 Gauge fans are, and the fact that KM1 say you will need to replace the fans every 3 or 4 years makes me wonder about the use of Dynamic Smoke in H0 models. Still, the 844 is a nice model and I'm tempted but then I'm tempted by lots of things in the catalog! Have a look at the pictures in https://www.marklin-user...KM1-01-180-1-Gauge-loco- to see how small the fans are in a G1 loco.

However, on looking at the pictures on the Märklin website, I see that it is just a repaint of their existing double-deck carriages - the cab car is very noticeably incorrect for an IC2. Carim

Even allowing for the mechanism in the base that allows the wheels to run (which I suspect is a pair of bands similar to a Smartrail) with corresponding electronics and Wifi or Bluetooth interface (they don't say which it is, just that you use a web interface on your phone) this seems a bit bit high.

Dynamic Smoke is a neat feature, the reason the smoke comes out of the bottom of the cylinders is because there are some fans in behind that blow the smoke around. In my KM1 1 Gauge BR01 the fans are installed in the actual smoke unit. Given how small the 1 Gauge fans are, and the fact that KM1 say you will need to replace the fans every 3 or 4 years makes me wonder about the use of Dynamic Smoke in H0 models. By some reason, yesterday I didn't notice this portion of your reply. I think the reliability of the fans is one of the causes for Märklin be presenting an H0 steamer only after others have done it (at least Roco and ESU). The fact that this is a huge locomotive may give more room for the fan (I think it will have only 1 fan), although obviously still less room than a Gauge I BR01. If the dynamic smoke will work ok in the 844, I think we will have it also in some Big-Boys, challengers and at least the Belgian steamers. I really would like to have it working in an H0 BR01. This locomotive and the BR 194 are my temptations for this year. I will decide when they will be available. Last year I only bought the RAm and the UP yellow coaches for the Big-Boy. Also some very few used analogue items.
		Best regards, Miguel Mostly Märklin H0.

Happy with my decision to pre-order the Rainbow ICE - and wow those Gauge 1 models certainly look the part... and cost it too haha!

It most probably works like the BR85 from Roco with the 1.5ml smoke fluid reservoir and a fan blowing the smoke according to speed. https://static.maerklin....41eb21d6a91628658502.pdf A.
