It is the plating process which is costly because it takes time to set up facilities and run the operation. Kimball

I’m looking at the BR80 here in the news prospect. Could this possibly be a cooperation between ESU and Marklin? ESU released this model 2024.. Does anyone have inside info? I will anyway pre-order this one for sure. The lok is the same as 37065 but with a little update.. not a new tooling... I was seeing the images in the Märklin product page and the image with a view from the side rear window shows the commands panel in the cab over the firebox, so it really seems they are using the same motor and so just a little update. I am pretty sure this refresh will be new DC motor (not the old DCM) with the capacitor, otherwise they would not be able to have the open cab view.

"Controlled high-performance drive with flywheel in the boiler." This is not the description of an old DCM. Let's wait the "explosion sheet" appear to lift all doubts

Joined: 05/02/2023(UTC) Posts: 12 Location: Alabama, Birmingham		I like the Gold Big Boy and ordered one this morning. It’s Nostalgic for me as it is USA 250. It will go with my weathered Big boy . I see that Brawa has several of the era 1/2 low flat cars with loads that I like. I like the brawa 1/2 early stuff since I prefer that era. Ajdkids.com in the USA is my preferred dealer, even with them a long time. Guy and the crew are great

I wonder who will get it to market first. Thats the second time in recent memory (SBB Ae 3/6I, which Roco have had on fire sale to clear out inventory of for a good year now) - can't be good for both firms unless there is some kind of behind the scenes cooperation? On an unrelated note, what a fun and interesting prototype. Not my thing but I really enjoy looking at it and learning about it.

Joined: 26/01/2010(UTC) Posts: 28 Location: Norway		It sure was exciting to watch the YouTube presentation from Märklin of New Items 2026. I have also looked through the PDF of the catalogue. Unfortunately there is not a single Norwegian or Swedish model. No US boxcars for the Big Boys. No Spur 1 items I want. I could have bought item 43886 if only it was 1:87 in length scale, as I only by true 1:87 models. I think this will be the first year since 1995 that I won't buy a single item. Strange feeling. A little sad too.

Joined: 26/03/2019(UTC) Posts: 897 Location: Florida Classic but Successful Swampland City		There is the possibility/probability that the Roco version of the Czech 477 is one of the prototype versions without the side saddle tanks. MäTrix appears to have the saddle tank version, so one could conceivably buy both and have a full complement in the Bw. btw, a company MTB is also doing a 477... https://mtb-model.com/index.php?...p;lang=de&meritko=H0 Or buy all three for the "Three-Peat" Edited by user 13 January 2026 15:11:29(UTC)  | Reason: Not specified

I agree with you. Nothing for me this year in the new items 2026, but I will have the BR249 from the new items of last year. I will imagine it is for this year new items…
