I need two scharfenberg couplers (non working) for my TEE VT11.5. They don't seem to be available from Marklin. Does anyone know where and how I could get them? Thanks.

Hello Otto, I presume you have either 37605 or 37609. The exploded diagram with my 37605 shows : 37605_explo .pdf (724kb) downloaded 46 time(s).Thus the coupling you seek is diagram #34 shown as Scharfenberg-Kupplung, Märklin part number 786 522 This number as a Märklin part number does not yield anything for me on internet search. It may be worthwhile enquiring directly to https://www.ebay.com/usr/coccodrillo114, a spare parts chap in Italy recommended by a number of folk on this forum. Regards, PJ

Hi, here is another reference: E306522:  Hoping it helps. These couplers are so fragile... such a big difference in reliability with the VT11.5 heavy metal body, I do not understand the choice of manufacturing this shameful plastic part... Best regards Joël |

I wonder what human part replacement that "M" is making for us , is it only available to members of this forum or on sale to anyone who may need this delicate part ?
Cheers Tom in Oz [ still packing up for the big house move ] .

Thanks Joël. I need two of those for my VT 11.5 and they are definitely not available under the part number Märklin lists in the part diagram. Although it will be a slow process to get them here in the US, it will be worth the wait because that is one of my favorite trains.  |
Regards,
Jim
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. |

Regards, PJ Thanks PJ, I had looked on eBay and found nothing. Not I looked at ebay.de and found them. About 3€ each. I have the 37605 and also the 43116 add on set (could not find a 43115) to make it a 7 unit train. But one car in the 43116 causes one motor to run in reverse direction. I guess I have to open it and change the wiring. The speakers in the vt11.5 are outstanding. Otto

My 37605 + 43115 is probably still my favourite train on my layout. You may have seen my ramblings before : https://www.marklin-user...-HVC-s-trains#post552176Regards, PJ
