I think it's a great looking little steamer, and I was actually thinking of getting the non-sound version, which I think looks nicer with the spoked rear pony wheel. Your comments have reinforced my decision! Ray

If your unit is not up to spec, they can either exchange it or send it back for repairs/tuning. Regards Mike C

The rest of the train is quite interesting too. It has a delta decoder, which is good enough to trundle round my layout in digital mode. No upgrade foreseen here. Ray

Whistle & Bell Sound Level on the BR 18 is much louder. (Without hearing aids). a real comparison will have to be done. NN

I fired off 2 emails this morning (Night in Germany) and I have received 2 replies. CS to hospital but this is the reply I got for the BR 64 Noise: Dear Mr Williams, Thank you very much for your e-mail and your interest in our products. The sound volume you hear is default for the BR 64. The volume can only be increased via register 63, you can enter a maximum value of 63. Question . I have the Volume set to its Max How do I adjust Register 63 to a MAX Value of 63.?? On the Cs cannot see how to adjust the registers. All sugestions welcome [^][^] but no rude ones NN have moved to digital section

As I dropped in at my MMR dealer today, to pick up the missing interface board for my CS, I found two interesting locomotives, of which I already have one: 3772 DB 212 Diesel locomotive 3774 DB 216 Diesel locomotive They were both made in 1985 for the dealer's digital demonstration layout. Both have transparent bodies, which in this case have not turned yellow. I think I got them for a very good price; approx Euro 62,50 each (NOK 500,-) Photos will follow.

Joined: 18/03/2007(UTC) Posts: 6,764 Location: Brisbane, Australia		My collection is not large, but it is all digital. I have 3 steam and 1 diesel from start sets (all are MFX). 2 diesel (MFX) 4 electrics (2 are MFX) 1 steam, my latest, is MFX, Märklin #37115. Another diesel from a Fire start set. And I also get to play with my grandson's Class 81 0-8-0 from his start set. Here are some pictures of model #37115 for era III, a beautifully proportioned engine in the real world. Built in 1913, it served in south west Germany till 1954, as class 18.1. It had driving wheels of 1739mm diameter, which suited it for passenger trains in hilly country and steep gradients. These are smaller wheels than the other class 18 steamers also offered by Märklin. The model is FULL metal, and has sound. The engine had four cylinders, the inner two are inside the massive chest under the smokebox. Märklin have modelled the wheels and valve gear exquisitely. The prototype for the model was built for the Württemberg Railway in 1913, and Märklin have modelled the brass makers plaque on the valance, and it is readable. You can purchase Roco ex Württemberg coach models #45494/95/96/97 to go with this engine, though the Märklin set such as 42750 would go just as well. The cranked axle for the inside cylinders, would have been visible through the frames. I hope you like the model. The only downside is it is not designed for a smoke unit. regards Kimball

I enjoy so much seeing an oldie back on the track! BTW, I also own PCM BR01 (in two different variations). It's a great lok, but a bit fragile, in particular the lok-tender coupling. And, getting back to the topic...I own waaaaaaaaaaaay too many of them (and I really mean waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too many). Should sell some. But I don't like to choose which ones to sell, so I will do it tomorrow.... :D
