The annual specific Birthday model locs are announced fairly late IMHO, 'fall' new items for the running year as current 2017.

I am already looking for 2018, hence 'my' model BR50 1968
As I want to avoid missing this and/or getting it too late, I wanted to start pre-ordering it right now.
But the process/availability made me hesitate....

So I must conclude:

37817 BR50 - "Wagner" large deflectors -> No longer available (would have loved to have this one for its nicer looks)
37847 BR50 - "Witte" small deflectors -> available every year


I like to have my 'Baureihe' available early next year.
So this should be 37847 BR50 1968
Märklin seems to use an 'old-style' paper form to order that I received from my dealer (still referencing 1967 - see attachement)

Can I start my order for 1968 already?
No special rumors special models for next year?
