I would definitely buy that 39573 E03 with C-Sinus motor. And I will myself later too as I have 27 TEE coaches from Märklin and Röwa. I definitely need at least one more suitable locomotive for them, maybe two. E03 is also my next TEE locomotive and later another E103. I appreciate the older very good technic of C-Sinus, it's amazing pulling power, smooth and silent running and so on. I am not a big fan of sound locomotives with Mfx decoders when we are discussing about electric locomotives, so my choice is easy . Cheers, Janne

		Matt Era 3 DB lokos, coaches and freight cars from across Europe But I do have the obligatory (six) SBB Krocs ECoS 50200, all FX and MFX decoders replaced with ESU V4s, operated in DCC-RailCom+ with ABC brake control. With the exception of the passenger wagens with Marklin current conducting couplers, all close couplers have been replaced with Roco 40397.

(That's what Marklin advertisement said in the past, not me! ) As 39573 is one of the models using first-generation Sinus motor, its single disadvantage is that you cannot ever swap the decoder! You will need to be happy that you won't have sound (rather redudant for e-loks in my opinion), and you are settling with Marklin-Motorola digital protocol, 27 speed steps -- nothing fancy... That said, I'm always happy with my own large Sinus purchases.... MM protocol, despite lacking speed curve or parameter control vs newer generation decoders, is still a remarkable performer in its own way. It has a no non-sense approach to things. IMO, models with large Sinus and MM protocol are still the better performer compared to newer DCM model with MFX / MFX+ decoder. No maintenance hassle, soooo much torque, quieter, and remarkably smoother running qualities.....

The 37575 is old enough to have an ESU mfx decoder. But in many cases the combination of prototype sounds with five-pole DCM does not work very well, because model noise interferes with the decoder sound. You can always leave the prototype sound off. Warm-white LEDs and the ability to turn the red rear lights off are advantages of this model. And for those who care about prototype nomenclature: there never was an "E 103" (neither was there an "E 120" - both would have been DC locos not compatible with the AC main network of DB). So please rather write "103" or "BR 103". The pre-series locos were introduced as "E 03" and became "103.0" in era IV while the main series was "103.1".
