So... It's almost that time of the year.

Which new items would you like to see next year?

Personally:

U-HANSA sleeping car (DSG, CIWL...)
A refreshed BR 38 Ep. III
FS (Italy) wagons EP. III (they do them for Trix in 1:87 scale, they did them for Riviera Express 1:100... Is asking too much to have two in 1:93,5?)
DSB (Denmark) Litra B Ep. III (again, it should be quite an easy repainting, they do them EP. IV and V, they can do them also for EP. III...)
Some SBB passenger wagons Ep. III


Ep. III (My layout is set in 1962).
I collect mainly DSB, DB and SBB but I'm quite... Open minded.
I'm quite a big collector of NOHAB lok :)

I would like to see:

More Hobby locos available without sound to keep the cost down
More 1:100 coaches in the Hobby range in different liveries and Nationalities
Freight wagons released singly instead of expensive sets.
One High end loco per year so that I can afford to keep up!

Many were narrow gauge, but there were also examples in standard gauge and broad gauge.

Apart from the standard gauge Garratts in UK (LNER and LMS) I've read about examples in Mauritius, Turkey, Holland, Argentina, and others

Broage gauge Garratts were found in India and Sri Lanka, but also in Russia, Spain and some South American countries

A full history of the Garratt type can be found in the late A.E. Durrant's book "Garratt Locomotives of the World". From this it can be deduced that there are very few prototypes in Europe for Marklin to choose from. Two main line classes in the UK, one of which has been done as a limited edition by the Hatton's shop, and the other was a single item only along with a few industrials. Russia had a single loco only which vanished after trials. There were two Belgian Belgian metre gauge and a single Dutch example which were tram type locomotives. The only other relatively large scale user in Europe was Spain where there were several classes on the narrow gauge and two classes on the broad gauge, a 4-6-2+2-6-4 intended for passenger service and a 2-8-2+2-8-2 for freight service. The Spanish firm of Mabar has announced its intention to develop a model of the latter but without any timescale.

looking further afield Uereka Models of Australia have their magnificent model of a New South Wales AD60 4-8-4+4-8-4. If you do not minding mixing your continents it has the advantages that the Australian loading gauge is not too far from European, it is fitted with side buffers and of course it follows the track much more closely than say a Mallet with its hangover at the front.

The British firm of DJH produces kits for the AD60 and the South African GMA/M 4-8-2+2-8-4 in HO and HOm, the latter of course being more correct for the prototypes three foot six inch gauge (1067 mm).

Nooo!! They were not all narrow gauge!! Here in Spain we had Beyer-Garratt 282 (double Mikado) and 462 (double Pacific) in wide gauge (Spanish, 1760 mm). See here: http://www.ferropedia.es/wiki/Garratt

i am in favour of the Garrett as well. But, what would it cost????More than a "big baby"??? As I have limited my choices of Locos to German and Swiss, would there have been one in those railways.??
New Zealand had a Garrett as well [ 3'6" gauge ] but it was too powerful for our draw bars and they kept breaking. The NZR then converted it into two loco's.

Yeah well.. Wishing is all I can do.. I have a total ban in place for 2017, except for the MM wagon and Christmas Car, because I came in well short of the 60 items I was supposed to sell this year.. Blushing It does not help that I managed to score the MAS IV ore car set (counts as one item) and the little Insider Railcar for 2016 (also counts as one item).. Oh and the Piano wagon, the Pepsi Re460, the two Economic Miracle sets, the TEE Vt11.5 and a few dozen other things.. Blushing Blushing

NZR had six Garretts that became 12 locos after they were split. It wasn't the drawbars that kept breaking AIUI, but the first wagons in the train got pulled in two.

I would like to see a model of the SBB Twindexx already mentioned above or the newly revealed SBB Giruno. It would be nice to have something like these from Maerklin and not from some of the lesser brands. I would guess that models with more variants would be more interesting to Maerklin, so I would consider a model of FLIRT or KISS type trainsets too, even though I already have models of those from Liliput.

Other than that, I would love to see an Ae 4/7 and EWI coaches to go with the earlier models of the SBB Lightsteel coaches.

Beyond that, I would like to see an Era IV version of Trix 23414 FS Coach set with UIC markings, the SBB WRm in orange with white stripe and a SBB Re 460 with Faiveley pantograph (E140787). All they would have to do is to design a prototypical wiper for the pantograph and mount them on a renumbered 37462 or Werbelok.

It would be nice if Marklin (or Roco) would do a BR01 and BR03 in epoch IIIa livery with Witte deflectors - ie circa 1954 instead of the Wagners only used immediately after the war.

Marklin have a BR01.10 (model is the 37104 Bellingrodt BR01.10 and it is somewhat let down by having the old DCM motor)
Roco have BR03.10 for 3 rail in this state (have the blue Mauritius and standard black)

BR44 with new motor (not DCM thx) and tooling (like what they did for the BR50) would also be great.

Once again I assumed this item. It is very sensible that Marklin has the module of BR18.3 to rebuild the new boiler as if Marklin previously made 37455 BR45 010 with newly designed boiler different to 37450 .

Liliput has made this model with good look and functional suspensions for driving wheels.

I think they were all narrow gauge?


Many were narrow gauge, but there were also examples in standard gauge and broad gauge.

Apart from the standard gauge Garratts in UK (LNER and LMS) I've read about examples in Mauritius, Turkey, Holland, Argentina, and others

Broage gauge Garratts were found in India and Sri Lanka, but also in Russia, Spain and some South American countries

We had lots of Garrats here in South Africa - running on our standard 3ft 6 ins gauge lines, which is almost narrow gauge by European standards??...and we also had narrow gauge Garrats on the Natal Narrow gauge lines.
I would LOVE M to produce the Garratts...Love
Joe

I'm afraid that it is pointless to expect any new North American models beyond the Challenger. I actually was surprised that they are even producing it.

For many, many years all Märklin has done is paint the same coaches and locos in different liveries. This makes their NA models wander further and further from reality and that gets kind of boring after a while. I don't think that they sell enough NA models to recover the costs of a lot of new models, so I don't expect much in the way of new equipment.

On the bright side though, they are making some beautiful European models that are well worth owning. Cool

Regards,
Jim

I have almost all Märklin and mostly HO, although I do have a small number of Z gauge trains!
So many trains and so little time.
