Yes, but I don't recall it. Have you tried googling the Loco image you want? That's what I did for my Jagendorfer Seilbahn cable car. No CS 3 image was available. The images must be cropped to fit the CS 3 size limit. You can upload any image to your laptop, desktop, and onto usb stick then plug into your CS 3 and install the image per the instructions.

I think the limitations on the image size and image type were eliminated at some time. I found that the easiest way to upload any image from the internet into the CS3 was with an ethernet cable to the router in your home. Same way for updates. Leloup you might make certain that you have the most current update to your new CS3. That is the best way to get the image of a new issue. If it is an older loco there are a number of ways to do it. The simplest is finding the image of a recent model of the same type in the CS3. There are a number of tutorials on YouTube on how to do that. The other is finding the loco online and downloading the picture. You will find that some sites have better images than others. The Marklin site images are very good. Catawiki are also. eBay varies a great deal and AJC and Reynauds are also good. Usually you can find an image on more than one site. As a final resort you can make your own image with a digital camera, smart phone or iPad. The larger the image file is the better the resulting CS3 image.
