Dear Santa, Please convey these wishes to the Märklin folks in Göppingen. Hopefully, they will listen to you, as you speak German ('cause they have not listened to me, even if I too speak German): 1) A "B" and possibly also a "C" Unit to be able to have prototypical consists for the already existing ALCO PA locomotives. Märklin, please, grant me this Christmas wish...And please start with the Union Pacific one and then follow with the Santa Fe one. I would also be so nice to have another locomotive (new tooling) for either the Union Pacific or the Pennsy. Remember what a spectacular job Märklin did with the model of the GG1? 2)Also please don't forget to design someday a flexible C-track and a R9 double-crossing. 3)Please retool the E03 and the E40 !!! And also, if it's not too much to ask, could you insert some interior cabin details in the SBB crocodiles? They look so uuuuugly inside. Greetings from Texas!

I know that we all have to have holidays, but AFAIK where I live in Canada we are the last to recieve anything. For example: I know that many places around the world have recieved Marklin`s BR 23 by now. I have one on order, but so far all I`ve heard is that it is on it`s way from Walthers but no date is given to when it will be shipped, and, I`m told that this is the only one that will be sent to my dealer, after which, there will be no more available. Naturally, I`m not impressed with this. QUESTIONWhy so late And...why only one  When everything is said and done... I guess Alberta, Canada, is still considered `The Wild Wild West Frontier`[:(!] Sorry... I didn`t mean to vent[:I] |

In my previous append on this thread I said that for my preferences I wished Soft-Drive motors on the models, but after seeing the Maxon in a Brawa BR94 I am not sure anymore. Although the Soft-Drive should be much more controlable, it seemed the Maxon is better...

This week I received my BLS Cargo 185.5 (36601). I would definietly like to see this in additional paint schemes:
1. Crossrail 2. BLS Alpine 3. SBB Cargo
White LED's would also be a nice improvement.
Also, I would like to see the cancelled starter sets with the MS2 become available. |

For all practical purposes - quietness, smoothness, torque - (despite its different technology) SDS and Maxon offered almost similar drive qualities. Try running a Marklin model with Maxon and SDS side-by-side; you'll be hard pressed to tell one from the other. |

Maxon and or Faulhaber wins at DCC for 2 rail. While SDS motor at DCC 2 rail is not working perfect. SDS motor works fine at MM. But you can also using Maxon and Faulhaber at MM with very good results! Trix diesellocomotiv MAK with an Faulhaber motor at DCC can pull about 100 wagons!  |

Brawa´s BR94 or Tn are an excellent machine with wonderful driving charisma! I did read that in the magazine MIBA,when they did testresults with an analog model (DC). With DCC you can reaching up higher driving capacity as results. Just go ahead with this model! And of course with MM... [:I]  |

My wish is that Marklin gets rid of the crappy, disgusting colour scheme of the 72883 roundhouse, and brings back the 72881 roundhouse.
Whatever possessed them to do that? Who was the 'retarded' Product Manager responsible for that monstrosity? It's (72883) awful!

Here then is my wishlist of non new items: Trix 23994 Schnabelwagen, Marklin 37662 NOHAB Snowplough and Marklin Yellow Goliath Crane.    [:p] Jeremy. |

Well, yes Goofy, that is what I thought I was going to have to do. However, Flash Dave sent me a message via the Cave telegraph service, to say that the Marklin kits are all Vollmer ones any way, and that Vollmer produce the roundhouse in the red brick colour. They have a 6 stall version (5758) and a 3 stall version (5754), and they are cheaper than the Marklin roundhouses.

I would like Märklin to produce a closed goods wagon with end opening doors (on a <u>wire hinge so they don't break</u>). That way I can actually run trucks and cars into the wagon from a loading ramp at the end of a stub track. It will be great fun, add variety to my goods yard, and variety to my switching. I can even use the wagon as a "secret" wagon, with a load that is secret to everybody. Then I can take a photo, and put it on the Quiz section of this forum, "What's inside??"  I think Märklin could do a lot with such a wagon, expecially in eras II (incl wartime) and III. regards Kimball |

"a closed goods wagon with end opening doors" Roco already have one, but the doors don't open (and close). Their catalogue number 46100. It is a nice wagon, and I have ordered one. I beg Roco's forgiveness for the following picture:  By the way. Flexible C track is never going to happen IMO. The engineering skill that Märklin put into C track, never envisaged the translation to a flexible system. It is designed admirably for set piece layouts, and for that it works very well. K track fills all requirements for flexibility. regards Kimball |
